The image captures a thought-provoking conversation between Bela Zola, an esteemed photographer for the Daily Mirror, and an intrigued tourist on the banks of the majestic River Thames. As dark clouds loom overhead and raindrops gently fall, Zola finds himself faced with a perplexing question from his curious companion. With his trusty camera in hand and armed with knowledge accumulated through years of experience, Zola ponders over what exposure settings would best capture the essence of this riverside scene.
