Description
This was shot at the top of Corcovado, in which Christ The Redeemer is. People were waiting on the line for their turn to get in the vans and make their way back and as I was observing them, I noticed that time to time they had to walk, making a beautiful pattern. I was able to capture it and the clean sky as background helped me with the soft white and grey background.Almost aways, the beauty in our everyday life is unnoticed. I say almost always cause we, photographers, are one of the exceptions. It is so good to be a photographer! My mom was very surprised that I could portray such beauty in a simple queue of people, being even more surprised when she thought that she was there too, but could not see anything at all. Society models the behavior of people, and wherever you are you are expected to do the proper things for the situation, and we end up forgetting to actually observe our surroundings.
I think I'm too philosophical today

Congrats on the DD, my friend! It is SO well deserved. And imo the comp of this photo is great. Not too much sky. Less sky would ruin the comp.

Beautiful composition, and a wonderful comment on society's customs. Love 'em or loathe 'em, they can be so much, and it's up to photographers who get out into the wild of humanity to capture us in our native environment. Wonderful!

I'm glad it was a good comment, lol! Whenever I comment on DDs I have this vague feeling of uselessness, that the comment won't get read because there are so many others...so I'm glad I managed to express something meaningful.

I never leave anything without a reply! I think that if ppl have taken the time to comment and say something, I feel the need to reply! Specially when it's something meaningful like you said... I'm sorry for the very late reply again, I have no luck (my computer crashed last week...)
