People Portraits: Friends at Starbucks

A portrait captures a moment that’s gone forever, they are impossible to reproduce. Street Photography today on Broughton Street, Savannah, Georgia. My goal in this series is to create a really awesome frame of this person existing because they allowed me time to share their world.

I usually like to take morning walks through Savannah’s Historic District where I live. First on the agenda today was coffee and empanadas at corner java stop, Blends. My favorite coffee spot, Starbucks was a few steps away on the adjacent corner. Hopefully the baristas over there could not see me sitting in the window seats at Blends but Starbuck’s menu could not tempt me like hand made spicy meat pies.

Ok, I did feel a little guilty after my mocha latte and flakey pastry so Neal and I began our walk in the direction of Starbucks. I always try to keep and keen eye open for the “Kodak Moments” that happen while the world moves at mind dizzying speed. Passing the large window to my left I glimpsed a such a moment. Walking a few more steps processing what I thought I saw I stopped. Wait!

Neal, did you see that? (An extremely rhetorical question!) See what he replied. (Of course he didn’t!) I quickly ran back to the window, tapped gently not to shock the ladies seated and motioned them to re-live the moment I witnessed. Surprised and touched they did! “Friends at Starbucks”

A rare, blessed moment I share with you. Be ready, be open to see, to celebrate the “moments” so often missed.
