Funtak 0 Posted March 16, 2011 This photo I took almost 19 years ago using Minolta analog camera; I knew next to nothing about photography. It was a war time and Dubrovnik was not spared, yet this fine gentleman decided to attend his favourite barber-shop and take his shaving anyway... Link to comment
borisbugan 0 Posted March 16, 2011 yes, one can feel the modesty and fear to get closer.yet, it would be very good street classic - cut from top and right (cca 1,5 cm) and in BW. the old mirrow, casualness and professionalism of the barber and the men reading the newspapper made it.BB Link to comment
borisbugan 0 Posted March 16, 2011 p.s. Vladimir - I would not publish the story behind the picture, at least for now. while it may drag people attention, complete the frame for them, it will perhaps (with utmost certainty) affect his comment.now, I believe this one has story, without wordsBB Link to comment
rlopezmoral 1 Posted March 16, 2011 Excellent day life capture, Vlad ... the complete scene is delicious in all it´s details. I wouldn´t crop it ... the top allows our imagination about all the peculiar things inside the barbery shop world ... and the wall on the right enhances the shot giving deep to the scene. Congrats, my friend ... a well deserved 7 and a hug.I´d like to see the B&W version .... Link to comment
Funtak 0 Posted March 16, 2011 Thank you for your comments, I do appreciate it...Boris, I think Ricardo made a point on your suggestions...There are also technical reasons that prevent me from going your way - it is a scan and negative was not world class so any cropping would cause decline in quality...Thanx again.

Vlado 0 Posted March 16, 2011 Nice street shot - it will definitely gain from conversion Link to comment
celasun 0 Posted March 17, 2011 Even without the info you supplied, the image suggests that something must be wrong; or, at odds with the rest of the image here. The rather dark interior, saturated colors, marks on the walls, a headless barber and a bodiless person all makes the viewer wonder what he/she is missing.Thanks for reviving this oldie.
