Summertime

It's a Street Photography that I took as usual in Candid mode.

The ice cream van with its colors was a very attractive background and I waited (maybe 1 hour) in the same spot as the right actors arrived.

A lot of people passed by until this group of young people arrived. They were moving in front of the van and it was difficult to make a picture where the figures weren't overlapping. It was important to have several planes giving three-dimensionality to the image. But also important was the story that the posture of the different characters suggests. A photo is so much better when both the form and the content are equally good. I fired dozens of shots but only one met the aforementioned requirements.

A story with vibrations of summer flavors and colors, youth, freshness and happiness.

Local: Foz do Arelho beach. Portugal.
