Close to Closing Time

Thank you!

BR,

--MAA

ecco un'altra delle tue scene di vita minuta, piena di particolari da guardare e che costruiscono un'ambientazione precisa. buono anche il bn

Very nice composition. Nice synchronization between the two persons. Great B&W image. Regards, Jean-Marc

Ancira una scena di vita splendidamente raccolta, l'espressione dei due personaggi e la minuziosità dei dettagli sono all' unisono con il perfetto titolo, bravissima El!

Wonderful men at work scene presented in b/w with such a nice naturality. Perfect composition and superb light.Congrats, El.

Great bit of composition and P/P El. Very cool the way the scene allowed a natural hi/low border. Good for you for recognizing it and using it. Great addition. All my best and have a great weekend-Jim

Compliments on another well produced shot. Jim is right about the natural border.. it is so fitting. Love the display of various types of drinks on the top shelf...Good work...Regards

Hola El. Excelente testimonio de la hora de cierre de esta heladeria, los personajes en su faena. En Alicante ( España ) tenemos unas buenisimas heladerias, con un halado exquisito, quedas invitada a un blanco y negro en el kiosco de Peret en la Explanada, seguro que se uniria nuestros comunes amigos, Vicente Concha, y Ramon Romero. Dos grandes abrazos, Joaquin.

A real masterful composition. Best regards.

Just excellent, El! Kind regards.

Several horizontal and vertical lines divides the compositon into smaller parts, each of them being neatly arranged. Indeed, excellent use of the bar counter and the ceiling for framing the scene. The men look tired but the awareness of the end of their working day seems to motivate them to do their best. Also, very good work in the darkroom, compliments and best regards -wm

Thank you one by one for stopping by. I truly appreciate your supporting comments. Thank you very much indeed. Have a nice week-end wherever you may be.

 

To Joaquin:...............Kiosco Peret en frente del puerto? Es una de las heladerías más caras de la ciudad.......hmmm? Estoy en viaje en los próximos dos meses, pero en septiembre con mucho placer!!! Gracias y un abrazo, El

 

Bueno, veo que también tienes el "amigo invisible del 3/3", Perfecto documento de calle, dos merecidos de esos otros, saludos.

Good one, the usage of black and white really work well here. I ike it.

A very clear composition with so good contrast,regards Radu.

Thank you very much for stopping by and for your supporting comment. I greatly appreciate. Have a nice week-end, El

 

To Jordi:................ esta persona es a mi mascota! De hecho tengo tres de ellas - siempre las mismas... Pero no estoy impresionada de esos tipos gurús auto-proclamados. Gracias y buen fin de semana, El

As usual, very good use of light and contrast!, tbo! Best regards, Linh Dinh

El..Great character sketch and street shot...Do they make a bourbon milkshake?...Superb tones...Marjorie

A escenas cotidianas les infieres un sentido transcendente, que posiblemente va mas alla de lo que pensamos, quizas un dia dentro de unos años, estas escenas seran un buen ejemplo para recordar y hacer historia. Por supuesto que yo tambien apoyo esa invitacion de Joaquin en Alicante. Espero que pases un buen fin de semana, un abrazo. Vicente.

Excellent capture of this scene. I like the B/W traitment. Best regards Christine

Very good composition and lighting.. Well done.. Best regards..

I really like this picture. The man wearing the tie looks real fresh for having worked all night, the sign of a real pro. Also I thought that cropping the reflections form the top & including only the whiskey bottles would bring more attention to the two men. Nice job in my opinion.

Thank you to all of you for letting me know your opinion. I greatly appriciate your time and effort. Thank you very much indeed.

 

To Marjorie:................ fifteen different kind of ice cream and coffee for sure, but milkshake? No idea :) But you made me curious...

 

To Mike:................to crop as you propose was an option, but finally I decided to include the lamps to keep the 'night character'. Btw, I shot this one across the street and cropped already the roof of a parked car in front...:) Thanks anyway Mike, always nice to hear from you.

Una escena natural, buena conversion a B/N.
