Waiting
What did people do before the mobile era when they had to wait for the bus?

Excerpt
A decisive moment
Description
Cannot say why this image attracts me, but most probably it is something with the contrasts (man/woman, large/small) and both sharing the moment of waiting for the next one.

Yet another shot that occurs just there and then, and never again.

Comments
This photo was taken with a very weird setting that for unknown reasons combined exposure compensation and high ISO. Most probably I was not aware of the compensation and the camera set on automatic ISO, hence lesson learned to always check the settings.
Processing

Comments
Due to the weird settings, the original was underexposed and I had to increase the Exposure with +0.5. To me, this image is about “just another day”, which is well captured by the Ilford Pan F Plus 50 (Affinity) emulation and its almost linear characteristic curve and only a slightly increased upper mid-tones of the upper part of the wall behind the people.
