Really nice shot Ron - I like all the stairs and details, the brightness, white dress to match .. and the "boots"   :)  Great timing.

Nice shot Ron - as others have noted.

Yes, I agree with Frank that cell phones are a global disease, which if anything seem to affect our woman folk in particular.

So Greek the whitewash and the bluestained wood, and indeed the latest human distraction the smartphone.

Excellent shot.  One of the best among your recent posts.  The blue color of the sky and the door gives nice accents to the pleasantly white image.

Only the purse, the sunglasses and the phone keep me connected to the present.
Maybe they ruin the image but I rather believe they make it.

And I love the sandals!

Thank you everyone.  It is almost impossible to photograph a pretty lady these days without a mobile phone..  One can really get away with a lot when using a very wide lens like a 20.  The subject thinks the camera is pointed away, yet they are very much in the picture.
