Avrei voluto un po’ più di tempo

L’aveva scelta il mio compagno, quindi sono partito senza sapere esattamente cosa aspettarmi. Il ritmo ci ha permesso di guardarci intorno senza dover pensare sempre alla prossima fotografia. Dopo siamo stati felici di non aver programmato niente di impegnativo per la serata.

Un peu plus de temps aurait été bien

Mon compagnon avait choisi cette sortie. Je ne savais pas trop à quoi m'attendre. Le rythme nous a laissé le temps de regarder autour de nous sans penser uniquement aux photos. Nous étions contents de ne rien avoir prévu de compliqué pour la soirée.
