Title:	Two English Girls

Diaphram:	f 2.8
Shutter speed:	1/250
Film Used:	Kodak T400 CN
Technical information:	I printed this in my darkroom as well - and did a lot of burning in the right hand corner. It was easier to do digitally, of course! My first experience with the C41 B&W. I find it necessary to boost contrast with this film.
Subject information:	I was photographing an archway in Southampton, when these two young girls came up to me. They thought I was a reporter, and joked about me taking pictures of them to show on television. I took a series of shots - there is a lot of life and youth in the two of them - and each in the series shows it.

Charming! You've caught a singular moment and the unique personalities of these young girls.

Lovely photo! I find these types of photo very hard to capture and still maintain their "natural" look. Nicely done.

This is possibly my favourite of this TOPE, because it's a very spontaneous and unposed picture of the two kids. Nice result from a great opportunity !
