Amanda (#176) 29-12-12

I was sitting in City Market, Savannah, listening to an outdoor concert. The place was packed. A young couple walked by, laughing and interacting in a way that clearly, they were enjoying each other’s company. Immediately they disappeared into the crowd.

A few minutes later, I began walking to the opposite end of the Market, with the young couple in mind. Sure enough, Amanda and Drew were headed my way, but suddenly turned into a shop. No problem, I can be very patient when I want to be. So when they emerged, I approached them with my usual line, and they thought that being photographed would be a hoot. Good!

Amanda tried not to smile for the camera, but it wasn’t easy. Fortunately, I got off about 15 shots, and just one had this gesture that I liked.

Drew just laughed, and just couldn’t keep his eyes open. I am not inspired by my images of him. But that’s OK, Amanda was worth it!
