Nice candid (nice colors as well- its subtlety dark). For me, I am starting to think that street photography could be more natural with a longer lens. Everyone says 35mm or 50mm. I only own two lenses and once you compute the crop factor I basically am shooting with a 50mm and a 135mm (the lenses are a 35mm and a 100mm on a 1.6x sensor). I keep wondering what it would be like shooting the streets with something between 70-90mm. You were standing - I’m guessing - about three meters from the subjects in this shot?
I do have a second question for you here, Pete. You shot color film, do you process your own film? Or do you send out? I’m actually thinking of buying a film camera (M7) and I see a lot of write ups on processing B&W but nothing on color. I am fine if it were just B&W but if I ever picked up a roll of Color I worry I would not be able to process it here in the Philippines (especially in the remote part where I live).
When a well-known Brasilian landscape photographer is visiting you, the least you can do is to show him the surroundings of you'e homepace.
With thanks to Paulo Stein.
Thanks for the comments...Ok, here goes
The photo was taken in one of Melbourne's city theatre/club "The Butterfly" https://thebutterflyclub.com
The girl is a model, while a guy was one of the waiters, who kindly agreed to pose for a shot or two.There was one whireless speedlight/umbrella to the left of the setting. Hope this helps :)
Thanks for the reply. For the longest time I imagined it a waiting room in a brothel or some other place. Although this was staged, it looks like a scene captured spontaneously. Great shot !

Could you provide a little story behind this photo? It's such an interesting picture. I am trying to figure out if it is a staged shooting or a real setting.
Love this shot. Perfect light and tones. great mood setter.
