This couple, bro and big sis I take it are moving along at a good clip; But big sis appears to be totally relaxed as if waiting for a phone booth. Like she's resting against a tree. The incongruity and anomaly of this makes for an arresting shot. Plus she's pretty hot. - perfectly accessorized. I guess little bro is doing the steering taking the weight off her. She's wearing ballet slipper shoes. I love that. Her jeans are perfect falling down behind the shoes and the way those stripes of her top gets pulled down behind her but is perfect. I think its seemingly effortless style in more ways than one. They are defying time and space and who knows what else. I love panning shots. How sharp the subject is you'd think it took lots of practice. Too fast a shudder speed and you freeze too much. [Rabs] Mark William Rabiner
