Egypt

The editing at this image was only to add selective range of contrast and a vignette blur..
Taking from the van, with a light too strong, when I saw it at computer’s screen, I found the result attractive..
They are passing as if nobody would be able to get them. They made me remind a poem of the great Salah Jaheen..

"I am the one who embraced the impossible,
I saw the moon in the sky, so I jumped high to touch it,
It doesn't matter if I could touch it or not, I don't care,
The most important thing is that my heart is full of the ecstasy of trying to embrace the impossible".

The high key "processing" works well here to give an impression of speed.

Actually there are photos like this one, which arrive to us as a gift, what can make others photos wrong, in some special cases makes them precious, original, nearly unique.
Thank you for explaining the genesis if this image, which has a beauty out of time, as if it came from the past, to walk immutable toward the future.
