Hi Michel. At first I thought they may be surfers as the emblem about Wave Action Gold Coast would stir me towards but when I look further, the sky seems so smokey and I'm wondering if they are not firefighters. Australia has had some incredible fires especially these last few years and firefighters from all over the continent would be going there to help out. In the story in my head, they have just washed up from many grueling hours of fighting the flames and are having a refreshing beer. Ha! Or maybe it's just a hazy hot day! Would love to know the real story, but I understand that not putting any makes this much more intriguing! Fabulous as always! :-) Maggie and have a great weekend, my friend. :-)

Hi Maggie ! Thanks for visiting once more :-) this one is from my beach series, so they are defenitely no fire fighters but I always imagined them being ambulance personnel. The title suggests that it could be not just what you were seeing. Someone here once said that she detested these kind of people with this attitude, but than after my story she could look a bit differently at the scene :-) wishing you a nice weekend with lots of sun and happiness !!

Maybe - after all our comments - you can make a movie out of all that ideas we have about the two (and the prejudices that I thought in the first Moment of Mafia and in the second ....nothing is always what it seems....... and I tried to look again without prejudice). Your shot is great, that is sure and anything else is a Kind of miracle..........

To me, with all my prejudices, the scene seems to be a movie's photogram....They are finishing a business although they seem to agree not much; everyone is in their own thought, very distant, different interests....but as you said in the title, I agree with you, maybe they are psychiatrist and patient having some words about mental health.... LOL :))) Anyway, a splendid shot!

It's interesting how we judge people. I would not hold appearance against anyone. He seems to have good symmetry. On the surface he is a good looking man, to me anyway. If he is also a person of good character and a good heart that would be a winner. I have to admit I don't get the title or description :-)

Yes...many people see the guy as a womanizer...but that's all about prejudice and being judgmental. It could be or not...that's what's meant by the title...maybe you understand now ? Thanks for even noticing this piece :)

I do not hate this shot. I LIKE this shot. It is very interesting and I have just now (I think) what you mean by the description. Smiles to you. F/V
