. . you see Dan . . what captivates me most is the grouping . . you have three together on the left with one profile gazing over . . one walking relatively alone on the right and they are all wearing white shirt and vest and then one gentleman in the middle wearing a black jacket . . awesome balance . perfect timing . . along with the back lighting and perfect composition using the rule of thirds it all adds up to a beautiful and timeless candid photograph which is destined to be a classic . . I love it :)))

Thank you, Sharon!! For everything!! This image has been a favorite of mine for a long time. It was definitely one of those "you had to be there at the right time" shots. As I was driving around south of Strasburg, PA, I passed a side road and had to quickly back up to get this shot with my telephoto lens. I was pretty happy to see that it captured the scene the way I hoped it would. Take care.
