When I spotted the couple in the distance when I framed this shot, I knew they would be out of focus because I’d set a wide aperture to give the giant ice-cream cone some seperation from the rest of the scene, but liked how they would fill a gap in the frame.
What I didn’t really notice – partly due to making sure I had focus on the ice-cream, but also because I had to be quick as I was in a queue and about to be served my own, normal-sized ice-cream – was that the man’s top was the same shade of pink as the “strawberry” swirl in the foreground cone, and his female companion’s top a similar colour to the blue flavour (whatever that might be). A nice little piece of synchronicity. 🙂

It’s a shame Superia 100 has been discontinued. Those colors look fabulous.

I agree. It’d be nice to still have it around – even better in 120 format!

So many great consumer stocks are limited to 35mm. 😢

Good composition FFA – the two fatties in the background spell the danger of excess (I’m a heavyweight BTW! So my comment is from my waist size 🙂
