My Best Candid Moments

What are candid moments.

Candid moments are those natural, unplanned shots where people are being themselves. Think of them like catching a glimpse of someone's real life – you're not posing or setting anything up, you're just capturing what's happening in the moment. It could be a stolen glance, a shared laugh, or even a quiet, thoughtful expression.

Here are some examples of candid moments:

• A child laughing wholeheartedly: The pure joy and innocence in a child's laughter can be truly captivating.

• A couple sharing a tender kiss: These intimate moments can reveal the depth of their love and connection.

• Friends enjoying a casual outing: The camaraderie and shared experiences among friends can create unforgettable memories.

• A family gathered for a special occasion: Candid shots can capture the warmth and love within a family.

• A stranger caught in a moment of thought: These solitary moments can offer a glimpse into the inner world of individuals.

Candid photography often requires patience, observation, and a keen eye for detail. It's about being ready to capture the unexpected and spontaneous moments that unfold around you.

I suppose we all know how childhood friends could be a Twist sometimes right, sometime we grow older and forget the friends. We began our route with. For the lucky ones and they go all through life with the same childhood friends and keep the light burning till Infinity. I am one of those lucky persons to have one of my most precious childhood friend still in good terms and like a pure brother to me.

Anytime we meet, it's often full of laughter, Joy and celebration. It's been some time I haven't meet with my brother and childhood friend. This is because of work schedule and owing to the park that we live in different towns of the country. On a normal Tuesday, I got a call from my friend telling me he was in town. Not something I could imagine because he leaves like in another region of the country.

Hearing from him, I was like really brother ! He said yes. Of course he just entered in this morning. I said what brings you to town brother. He say nothing just here to chill. It's been old work. No play. He's creating some time off to chill. I was like all right. That is great. In fact, I am so happy to have you in town brother. So I proceed by asking when can we meet. He said he's free all time so I told him. Is it possible for us to meet by evening? Let's say starting from 4:00 p.m. He said all available.

Hearing news, I was overwhelmed with joy As it came as a surprise. I wasn't expecting him at all or neither was I. Hoping to see him soon because I knew that was going to take a longer time but right now right here things are at my doorsteps. In fact I got to be happy.

By 4:00 p.m. I was already on my way to the mall, that is the juncture we intend to meet. All right, so I took a bike right to the place. Upon arrival. He wasn't yet there and owing to the fact that it's my town and he knows little about it. I have to arrive before him in order that I could give him directions. Few moments later he stopped at some point and I work after the station to get him from there. From here we stroll down to the mall vicinity.

While moving down, we take dramatic numerous shots to keep the moment alive.

You can see that we are having a good time already. Just by meeting. We crack all time jokes right there as we take the photos and you can see that we are full of laughter. Enjoy in the middle of the photoshoot.

Done with this part, we move inside the mall to have some time there. This mall is called the Douala Grand Mall. One of the luxurious mall in town. It's a quiet and peaceful place touristic and attract a lot of people. This is how the interior looks like.

While inside, we moved to a sports which is outside the balcony. Why we can have enough fresh air and then order our meals. While in process one of our friends as well. Join us from there. We had a joint mirror of three together.

The foods available here are KFC, Pizza, ice cream, soft drinks, braised chicken, just name a few. We were interested in KFC and braised chicken. So we lay our commands And while waiting for the waiters, we share more interesting stories on the time we have been missing out there. It was an interesting moment indeed.

Few moments later our meals arrive and we all get to work. This time with food in front of us. No more talking, just concentrate and eat first time. It was quite delicious and we all enjoy ourselves in the end.

Before we could round up, it was already getting to 6:30 p.m. In the evening. Remember we started late roughly around 4: 30 p.m. so everyone has to get going. I hug my brother and childhood friend then. Wish him a nice day and give him my card so that he can visit me anytime. While is he still in town. It was indeed a candid moment

Like the often say it is rare to have real friends nowadays and when you do find some, make sure you keep them tight and don't mess it up. I am proud to have a real friend and that I can boost of. Being with this person makes me happy as much as possible.

All right, so we have come to The end of one of my candid Moments so far and the latest one of them. I will be sharing more candid moments on different topics related, but then let's stick to this one and show it some love. Thank you all. God bless you!.
