The photograph was taken when I was buying bread. The lady on the left is accounting for the older lady on the right who in turn, was telling the story of her fall a couple of days ago.
The G7 is silent and they didn't notice at all I was taking their photograph. The second lady from the right was making a stroll with the older.
The lady in black was assisting with short tips about the subject.
The photograph is rather tilted. I was taking them without seeing it. After all, I am taller than this.
In Portugal people are not paranoid - so far - about taking their own pictures. I am not going to print and give them the photo as I do not even know the ladies except the one on the left. But I intend to take a picture of her one of these days, selling the bread. Then yes, I will offer her a print.
Our society is very connected and we give tips about ourselves willingly when using smart phones, or bank cards for example. Does one photograph by someone makes any difference when we are videotaped in the bank, in the market, on the street ?
Something different is about taking pictures of children. There are so many maniacs...
Nineteen Eighty-Four - George Orwell's world ! Or worst ?
