I like this “ slice of life” picture with the accompanying story.
For me I prefer this type of traditional “ reportage” rather than dramatically grabbed “ street photography” as it is labelled these days.....your capture reminds me of the “ Picture Post” genre from the 1950’s. Thanks for sharing it.
Terence,
Thanks for commenting.
This was nothing more than a bit of theatre. None of the three was actually naked. Truly, I felt sorry for the poor photographer who was given this wonderful assignment by his newspaper to cover on a Saturday. Waste of time for all involved. I grabbed this shot and then moved on to more fertile photographic pastures.

Hope you are recovering and things are getting back to normal. Keep walking and posting pictures :)

Thanks for the kind comment.

I appreciate the compliment.
I'd really like to hear why you like the picture, as opposed to just telling me that you do.
Robert
I appreciate your comments.

I always loved Gene Smith's shot, and this paid homage to him, (although his photo was more dramatic than mine).

Thanks for the kind comment.
When I went to make this shot, the photogods smiled down on me.
