Don Francisco

Thanks for looking me!

Colorful and meaningful shot my friend, bravo.

Hi Alberto

 

Your shot is a fantastic one regarding the visual elements and their visual importance, emotional content, and compositional elements. The man is properly placed on the right 1/3 in the frame with the red cart on the left1/3. Both motifs have similar visual importance and they compete for attention at the same time which makes the viewer halve the attention he pays to the motifs equally. Normally, this may not sound right, but here ,with both of them essential in conveyance of message, it has produced the desirable effect. The background is shrouded in darkness taking away distractions that could otherwise undermine the optical movement between two main motifs. the light is focused on the man creating a focal point. I understand there was nothing you could do to rescue some details in the man's shirt since it is totally white in a contra light situation. What grabs my attention is the wrinkled face- properly exposed to reveal the aged skin which

helps the viewer figure out how old he is. The man's expression conveys his tiredness and fraility. For a moment , I even thought the man had fallen asleep in sittting position, or does he? The red cart has no useful details for me to figure out what it is, or of what significance it is to the man. I believe you could take a wider shot to provide a little more visual clue in that regard to complete the story. All in all, your shot is an effective one with enough clues to engage the viewer and guide him around the frame. Well-done.

Very nice and interesting photo! Beautiful colours. Best regards, Ivana

Lo mismo que la fotografia en B/W, pero con unos brillantes colores y excelente encuadre, saludos cordiales Amigo Alberto.

I like your photo, here. I don't know if this fellow enjoys a slower paced life or not although in the photo, It seems that he is at peace with the world. Nice image. ~Sky

Me encanta Don Francisco arreglando su transporte. Colores llamativos y muy buena composicion! Se me ocurre que en el canasto puedo llevar el equipo fotografico y que se puede parar y parquear/estacionarse  rapidamente.  Pues esta es una idea fenomenal para mi futuro! Alberto te veo con mucho Ingles haciendo comentarios de fotos a miembros de PN.  Tomastes Ingles en la escuela o vivistes en USA? De donde es tu Ingles?
