Description
While all my documentary photographs are found naturally, sometimes I have an influence on my subjects. While this is done with their permission and cooperation, they often have quite a lot of fun making the photo with me.
In this case, I stopped to park when I saw the brother and sister racing each other down the sidewalk on their Big Wheels, a tricycle popular in the 1970s. I had them race back and forth a while while waiting for the right image.
They came at me, and would turn around to continue their private race. The problem I was having catching the right moment, was the larger sister would coast her feet on the back step, while her brother would try to catch up. Finally I took the image with them both in a high gear pursuit, the action I had originally seen, to make this documentary of childhood.
Taken with my Hasselblad 500C with an 80mm F2.8 Zeiss Planar, on Kodak Tri-X panchromatic film in the mid 1970s. You can see my white 1958 VolksWagon van parked farther down the street.
Feel free to download, just give me photo credit.
