The Japanese Tourists
Photo Information
At first I was a bit annoyed by these Japanese Tourists as I wanted to take images of the stones with no-one in view. After a while though, it was obvious this wasn't going to happen, so I decided to make them integral to the image. A few minutes later I became their 'official photograper', taking images of them in all sorts of different poses, including them all jumping up in the air at the same time!

A lovely crisp image and a fine example of how to turn adversity into advantage....

Nice sharp capture, beautiful lights and colours. I don't feel distracting the Japanese Tourists in the composition.

I agree - they seem to blend in well. They also give a sense of scale to the size of the stones.
Gorgeous colours too.

Yes this is lovely large, your eye follows the stones round to the people and the light.

An unusual and effective composition. Lovely rich colours, too.
Best wishes,
