OMG,
This chiaroscuro is no way accidental! This is becoming a habit of yours with three in a row!
You really are on a role. Fabulous! I am enjoying it.
Just add some words if you feel so disposed. I’d like to know how you hunt for this or set it up!

Hi Asher
Glad you like it! The image is uncropped and was taken hand-held without any grid lines or axis aids with a 35mm lens. The area is illuminated by light reflected from a colored glass building across the street. The bench is located just outside a covered entrance to an art gallery.
I was attracted to this place because of the light shining into this area however, the two women were not there when I arrived. I was admiring the stone bench,light,and architecture in doing so I set an exposure for the area and decided this would be a good place to make a picture, thinking that I could catch some patrons walking by out of the gallery. Then just like magic these two women came and sat down!!
I took a number of pictures with various compositions but the entire process took no more than a few minutes.
Best, regards
James
