Street Photography Competition - 1st Place

Congratulations to Alan Jones from Edinburgh, Scotland with this imge entitled 'Church Goers'

Alan explains - The image was taken at a church door in Barcelona. It was entirely candid. I saw the possibilities of a shot very quickly and was keen to get a symmetrical composition. Fortunately no other passers-by got in the way. The crossed legs of the two individuals was a bonus. The colour version is good but I thought B+W suited better.

It was taken on a Canon 5D with EF24-105 L lens at 200 ISO. The exif data tells me it was f8 at 1/15th. I can't for the life of me recall why I was shooting at 1/15th ! Just shows it's surprising what you can get with a steady hand.
