Walking around the village, a photo from Kastoria, Macedonia

Photographer's Note

The age is not a hindrance to the old ladies practiced walking around their village, at 900m altitude in Kastoria prefecture.
In WS the B&W version of the photo.

Hello Vasilis,

A quasi military walk !!! There is only the walker of right-hand side which is not in the rhythm (on the level of the foot)… Beautiful and dynamic photo on these three girlfriends. Very good exercise to keep health, cheer with these three women and the photographer for this tinted moment of humor and the good qualities of the image, I prefer the color.

With all my friendships and excellent Sunday,

Jean-Charles

Καλή Ημέρα
Υπέροχες φωτογραφίες από τρεις ηλικιωμένες γυναίκες στο δρόμο. Περπατήστε ή μπορούν να πάνε την Κυριακή στην εκκλησία. Πολύ νοσταλγική φωτογραφία. Μας υπενθυμίζει η παροδικότητα. Εξαιρετική πλαίσιο.

Gei sou Vasili,
Nice shot of daily life.
A view sight which we see more often in the countrysides than in the cities.
I think that I prefer theWS B/W version.
Have a nice sunday,
Diane

Γεια σου Βασίλη!

Πολύ όμορφη σκηνή, χαρακτηριστική των ελληνικών χωριών, με τις γιαγιούλες να απολαμβάνουν τον περιπατο τους! Αψογο καδράρισμα και σύνθεση, πάντα η παρουσία "μονών" στοιχείων ή θεμάτων (στην προκειμένη περίπτωση οι 3 γιαγιούλες) είναι πιο αποτελεσματικοί από αυτή των "ζυγών". Πολύ καλός φωτισμός και σύνθεση.

Hello Vasilis

You've captured a very scene.
I really like how you focused on these three old ladies... You've also done a good use of the environment to get an elegant scenery.
We can easily imagine they spend a good time, having woman's conversation.

Compliments.

Regards
Karine

Hi Vasilis,
Funny capture with those three old ladies. They look like a pop music band, almost the same outifit for everyone. Well seen scene.
Have a nice evening.

Hi Vasilis,
A very fine capture! If this is not totally according to the "rule of thirds", it is at least according to the "rule of three"! A very good observation and also an interesting glimpse of daily life in Greece.
Kind regards
Gunnar

Hello Vasilis,

a great daily life scene. The picture of ideal way of getting old. The colours of the women's clothes, the length of their skirts and their walking sticks look as if they were wearing uniforms which has made me smile.

Best regards

Hello Vasilis,

The principle of three is well used to draw attention to this picturesque scene!
The situation arise curiosity as the viewer will like to know where they are heading...
A well balanced composition!

Greetings,

Hello Vasilis,
What a beautiful capture! The three ladies are so perfectly lined up, with their canes all in the right hand, skirts of the same lenght, and almost identical sweaters. And to make for perfect symmetry, the only one not wearing a scarf is in the middle. Just perfect!
I like the b&w workshop, but I think this colourful version is more cheerful, which does not hurt.
Thank you for sharing and have a good day!
Dasha

Geia sou dear Vasilis, I'm glad you chose colour for this photo, although I like the B&W in the Workshop. You spotted these 3 ladies well and I'm happy that they're still walking around and enjoying each others company at their age. Excellent sharpness and definition. TFS and I wish you a good evening, Lisa
