"The Sculptor's Model"

Rome_3024

We were walking some of the backstreets of Rome when we passed this shop window. I had just a few seconds before the worker moved away from the statue. It was a grab shot all the way, through dirty glass, but a keeper.  The moral of the story: Be ready. I would have missed this if the camera was put away, and if I didn't have it set for street photography which is F/8, ISO 800, continuous shooting. Jan
