Ted, I am really struck by the lack of "shoppers" in that mall and diners at the outdoor tables. Is there really so little people traffic or are you just incredibly patient?

I guess I should explain. I took these on a weekday, just around the beginning of lunch time. Boca folks are getting mani's and pedi's and massages about this time. After another hour in the tanning booth, make up touch-ups, and some teeth whitening, the Boca men and Boca-ettes will begin to show up for lunch fashionably late. Only tourists and riff-faff will be seen before 2pm. Obviously, if you have to ask.....




OH, and I almost forgot.... the sun is OUT! And you know what the sun does to their skin!

Yes, I would fall into both those categories. Quite happily,too!

Are these people for real Ted? Is this the new "À la mode" thing in Boca?

 

[TedG954]

As sad as it is to say.... yes, Marcel, these are real people.

Are you starting to get the picture? It's kinda like the Walking Dead, except the Zombies are beautiful people with lots of money.

Thanks Lawrence, but I really don't know if it's the fact that the camera is mirrorless or if it's the lens, or if it's the sensor.... etc. I just know it works as a combination.

Bucking Bronco....... or not.

OK. OK. Here. It's a red Ferrari and a typical Ferrari owner from Boca Raton. I hope you're happy now.

Don't rule out the roles that the subject and photographer play in this game! Nice photos!

PS Many years ago, we lived in "Boca" while my dad took a sabbatical from teaching and went back to school at FAU. I remember one man at a dinner party saying something like "There are no toilets in Boca Raton. I know because all of those people are full of $41t." It appears that it hasn't changed much since then.
