Carumba MERNA!

Welcome to the Crèma for some coffee, cake, chat and people spotting.
Muchos gracias Senora for your very inspirational comment on my caffeine induced candid shot.
I am so happy to see your are getting more from my candids.
Well it IS a front row sit really and my close proximity if further enhanced by the use of my 100-300mm telephot lens that creates the compression.

Glad to see you made it to the Crèma in time to catch this one.
Thank you kindly for the encouragement of your uplifting "Excellent juxtaposed image..." comment on my candid caper.
It was a real buzz as I sat there and saw something relevant each time the woman turned a page.
