My, this gives a different view and different interpretation. The dogs are almost hidden, so we lose that viscious "threat". The guards look more relaxed - like "family day out for a picnic". From this angle we see what appeared to be more than one Ausweis is actually the officer's STOP sign. Also, he appears to be holding only one pass. Nice job with the depth of field, with sharp focus on the central character - the officer and his duty. The lighting here suggests either early morning or early evening. The effect on the clothing - a more realistic appearance. Also, from this angle, the woman seems almost unconcerned. At least she's not worried. The soldiers look rather relaxed. You've done a good job with this diorama and the photos. Keep up the good work! :-)

Another fine story from you.You give us an accurate insight into this scene. It's a pleasure to read it and thanks again for the fine comment,greetings, Gerrit.

Excellent little scene. I love pictures like this of miniatures taken as if they were full sized scenes.
