This is the seventh image from my Bruges series.
I couldn't resist capturing these wonderful characters as they stood in conversation on a canal bridge. They struck me as having great charm, and probably a wealth of interesting stories to tell!
I'm not sure if they were visiting Bruges, but one of the gentlemen was handling a camera.
There was another companion too, along for the ride ........ the tiny dog in the wheeled trolley basket, well wrapped up against the December chill, as were the two ladies, also dressed in fur coats!
My next upload "Bruges Blues", will show a view of the canal from this bridge wall.

Thanks for looking, and for any comments, which I really appreciate.

I guess the fur coats they wear were not "dog fur coats". I just wonder how we can have a dog and, at the same time, wear this kind of thing. Well, this is probably another debate which has nothing to see with photography. This one is great, by the way!

Well, pimbotin...I'm a fashion designer and I'll tell you right now, those coats are probably left over from the 40's when it was okay to be the dominent species without offending anyone. However, I love animals and adore fur, but I admit to my savage nature. The only thing stopping me from having a fur coat is the high price! LOL I have one made of polyester and have been stopped by animal activists...and I always embarrass the hell out of them by retaliating with, "And do you know how many polyesters died for this coat?" Always gets a laugh!!! Sorry, but your comments about furs on Renderosity is not a place for your soapbox! I happen to ADORE this shot!!! It has so many elements: color, textures (soft warm fur vs hard cold stone), human characters of incredible depth. I agree, I'd love to hear their stories! And that little dog is adorable!!

This is just the best. The group look so without-trying-at-all smart; oh and THAT dog! The whole thing is just SO just-happened-to-be-there. Oh goodness, I sound like I've hit the bottle again. Havent, honest. I do love this one. xx

Oh this is fantastic! I can just picture the folks chatting away and the little dog is just darling!!

Yes, Gordon, we all follow guidelines in our life, through our gestures, thoughts and feelings, it's like breathin' in an enormous consciousness!!! Fascinating Shot, My friend.......V......hugs, Guillaume.

the one gentleman appears to of been a sea going bloke or pretending. fotos like yours that catch people in natural poses, to me means more than planned poses.superb capture

This reminds me of a seal skin coat I once had. I bought it at a garage sale for 20.00. It died a long time before I was born, so I figured it was alright..giggle I love the myriad of textures in this. Soft fur, the wonderful wonderful brick pavement, the brick wall with the grass coming through at the bottom, it just doesn't get much better. I love these. Guess it is as close to Bruges as I will get. So much character in the subjects. Brought a smile to my face.
