Sex or Chocolates
Posted on 05 February 2006
What is their body language saying? This couple were standing still on Princes Street for a good while and I sensed something was amiss.
Pictured in the background is the shop front of Ann Summers. The byline in the window reads “Sex or Chocolates”

That is a GREAT catch! Their body language says a lot. If you asked me, my guess is that she has just told him that she would prefer the chocolates
Brilliant. The fantasy and the reality of relating.
wow! fantastic composition, great!
Nice street shot, looks like he’s got himself into trouble, some quick thinking needed.
Thanks for the comments! When I was in town yesterday I despaired of getting any good shots because it was overcast and dull but I have 3 or 4 that are good enough to publish.
Yesterday was also the first time in a long time I decided to shoot in Jpeg instead of RAW and I don’t think the end results suffered too much for it. I had to use a high ISO because of prevailing light conditions.
Shooting Jpegs is more economical on disk space too and I didn’t mind shooting in burst mode which definitely helps in street photography!
2 vs 2 = cool!
the rating system = cool!
Nice timing with the two girls seeing the shop front. Can’t we have both sex and chocolate?
Interesting composition!
I agree with Jarrett. Lol. Great shot!
Looks like tension to me, especially the girls body language. Great shot.
The Heart logo is great, and the women on that place is amazing combination
Sex and Chocolates?
I like that picture. It looks like regular life when passing a passion….
Daniel
wow i know those girls on the right! ill let them know
He is saying to her. “Don’t look now but that guy Donncha is here again with his darn camera!”
)
Great picture!
What a cool shot!
That guy looks like he is in real trouble
( or will be when he found the words he
is just looking for..).
Great shot, looks like they are making a tough decision.
Great Pic! I love the black and white . . . looks like the two are thinking intently.
your photographic talent is unquestionable. Nice work
ill go for the chocolate, please
