Shalom,( peace) Is My Name

Great capture!

Nice portrait pnina ,very meaningful. I am not sure if it is possible to stop people from mistaking. But I am sure a big mistake is a mistake man makes without trying to stop. I wish people can learn from past mistakes or at least from their own .Best wishes for you and your loved one and peace !

Thanks for your comment, but I did not understand what was your meaning about mistakes, can you please explain it farther? or send me an email with an explanation? Thanks

....man should be FREE to exercise his traditions and beliefs. Shalom Pnina and best wishes, Dimitris.

Very nice portrait with a compelling statement. You have chosen an excellent subject and captured him very well in order to convey your title effectively. His face certainly does express 'peace' beautifully. It is impressive that you managed to find and convey such an open, accepting, and peaceful face on such a young person. The people I meet who are this age are full of emotion and tension -- we should all find out what lies behind this man's success.

It's always a good idea to affirm peace and truth wherever you find it. I don't have any clue what the context for the portrait is, but there is a peace that seems settled over him. And that peace, if only momentary, is a lovely thing to capture.

Oh shucks. . . Now Jeff has gone and said what I wanted to say, only so much more eloquently!

Ian and Jeff. Maybe, that strong faith brings some peace of mind to some of the people, but I myself don't see the religion and faith as a remedy to what I see around the world.

Fantastic portrait, I love this contrast and composition, Pnina.

SHALOM,Pnina. I join with you and others for PEACE on earth.Very good portrait. He is young & full of promise. So is your great country.

Always did like the sound of that word especially when the "m" is a little drawn out kind of like a meditation. Either didn't know or forgot it meant peace; thanks for the reminder.

I too like the lighting, it is a little bright in some places but not in a bad way.

 

You sure you didn't go to Canada and take this of Gordon? It kind of looks like his latest portrait he posted.

 

Kirk

Kirk I like Gordon's bio, but this one and his portrait are world apart....;-))

 

Amal and Kirk, I have met yesterday in Jerusalem a PN member that is visiting Israel, we are good cyber friends, and he explained once to me that what his prist told him, is that SHALOM has a wider meaning than just a greeting, I totaly agree with him, and with both of you.

 

Alberto, thanks as well for all your feedback.

 

Thanks.

I guess the beard and long hair threw me.

Pnina ,what I was trying to say is; its good to wish peace and very important to give hope worldwide peace is possible.Your way to communicate peace ideas trough your work is very nobel.Best wishes!
