Lookout

I thought at first the soldier and the woman with the handbag in the background were standing on top of a shed, but now I see they must be on a balcony attached to the building. Love the juxtaposition between those two, looking away from each other, with the girls in the foreground facing each other - excellent composition.

The gal behind the fence is holding a nice twin lens reflex. Not the detail I would have focused on in younger years!
