Generation Gap

Generation Gap

Taken with a Nikon D70s

Going through some old photos and came across this one. I found it interesting the different forms of ‘transportation’ there was between these two generations.

This was taken in Granada, Nicaragua.

    This is still one of my favorites, from the comp. As I said in the competition, it reminds me of a shot you would see in National Geographic. Well captured.

  • Katherine Meyer

    Katherine Meyer

    This is a great shot! Especially how it also captures the difference between age groups, the younger person always on the move, the older person moving a bit slower to take life in, nice job

    i ll take the bike !!! it might not be going faster though because the motion blur looks the same for the bike and the foot.. maybe they are going equally fast but the bike is just ahead of the guy… ok i am thinking out loud here
    awesome shot

  • Shelly Hiebert replied

    Even though I read this comment hours ago and was too tired to reply….it made me laugh equally as hard this second time around! You are great Shoaib :) Thanks for your very unique and entertaining comments…..I love them ;)
