Momento Quinto Sу, a photo from Evora, South

Photographer's Note

Just a moment from the local elder’s daily life.
I only made a crop on the picture to remove some passing people on the right.

Near-far composition leads w/good diagonal lines, ending w/surprise, a person. I really like the detail in the background, with the lamps and all. Great pix.

Very nice compo. The line of benches with the main subject at the end is very good idea. Not sure that I agree Wei Chong baout the detail in the background, I think I might have cropped a bit closer to his head.

hi Pedro..it would be really great to have the left and bottom of the first bench in the picture..but I think you should not crop from the top..there are nice details there and gives a balance to man's direction...I liked several similar lamps there..
I tried a ws too..I hope you like it..

Gosto da foto. O P&B funciona muito bem nesta foto. Os bancos vazios quase que nos convidam para sentar. Well done.

Great shot. I like the perspective in the way that the first bench is just so large in the frame as compared to the last one the man is sitting on. Another interesting way to take a picture like this would be to squat down and get level with the seat of the benchs with the man still on the last one sitting far away (does that make sense?) anyway good work!

This is a very nice pictures. The repetition of benches looks good. And the old man sitting in the last bench gives a meaning to this photograph. The black and white color looks good in this photo.

Excellent composition; I like how you almost force the viewer's gaze into following the row of benches to the old man. It conveys very well the lonelyness of the old man.

Perfect image! Wonderful POV and leading lines taking you to the stairs I can picture so perfectly, in between those narrow buildings with lanterns overhanging everywhere. The black and white and man at the end of the benches makes this image even better! Wonderful!

Bom dia Pedro:

uma otima composicao.
Gosto muito do formato BW e das simetrias nas fotos, como nesta foto que tem os dois.
um DOF e POV sublimes.

PARABENS !!!

abracos

Linda composiзгo, os bancos alinhados em direзгo do homem sozinho.

Muito bem composta, acho que faltou um pouco apenas de nitidez.

Bom trabalho
Andre
