Thank you dearest Foamy , so pleased you enjoyed the photos.
As well as Doisneau, look up the photography of Édouard Boubat and Henri Cartier-Bresson, two more French photographers, their work is brilliant too.

Cuando veo estas fotografías recuerdo lo mal que me sentí al enterarme que fueron una escenificación, eso sí pero que bien hecha por el maestro Doisneau.
Saludos

Thank you for your comment dear Victor , yes, many of these photographs were staged but one can still dream.
Just think of the many kisses that are shared with love and passion which are genuine and not rehearsed.

Warm greetings
