Thank you so much Jin! This scene took a while to develop into that image. I saw the two dogs and felt a third element was needed to make the scene. I crouched down with my back against the alley wall and waited to see what would happen. When the woman and boy stepped partially into the light it was like being zapped by electricity and made the shot!

I don't think many non-photographers realize that taking pictures can feel like an extreme sport with all the adrenaline! Long moments of quiet with sudden brief but enlivening moment when an improbably perfect scene starts to form. I'm addicted to those moments and am learning to listen to my gut more and work for them.

Of course Devi! It's always very challenging and physically tiring too. It involves a lot of patience to get the right timing. You did great in this shot in here.

The framing is really good here and the foreground. The dogs are really cute and very good addition to the composition.
