Photographer’s Note

They are warriors because they survived a war that somehow is still going on althouhg in a low level... War, what a terrible word this is, right? But they keep going on and on and on... Is there any solution? Take care all of you.

PS: Yes, It is a naïf note, I know, maybe that´s why I dont understand wars.

Sus rostros reflejan vidas intensas y nada faciles, hombres de caracter curtidos por el sol y los años vividos. Gran foto!!

Saludos

Bold and strong array of the human faces...
One of those photographs when the goal and intentions of the photographer are clearly visible and perfectly executed...
Yes...You meant to show these noses, these wrinkles, these skin tones the way you just showed them us...
No bullshitting' theme...
That's the way it is, ladies and gentlemen...

................

War ...!
What solutions ?
What end ?
Man... They love it...Tremendously...
They don't know anything else... They've been born to fight and die, and before die - trying to kill as many of others as efficiently and heroically as possible...

What..? Can you imagine them as the teachers... Lawyers... Doctors... Mechanics... Chefs... Engineers ????

War...The first and foremost...
The loveliest time of their life...

HOLA MIGUEL,
UNA GRAN FOTO EN LA QUE NOS ENSEÑAS LOS ROSTROS CURTIDOS POR EL DESIERTO. SI SEÑOR MUY BUENA FOTO.

Hola Miguel,

Esta foto me pareció una pasada cuando la ví... no sólo por la composición que es magnífica: todos mirando intensamente en la misma dirección, tocados con un turbante igual, perdiéndose la definición a medida que se pierden en el fondo de la imagen. Destaca sobre todo el hombre del primer plano, con rostro tenso por la atención, y con toda la historia de su vida escrita en las arrugas de su piel curtida por el sol, el aire y la arena del desierto. Es todo un poema! Bellísima!

Besos,
Angel

Now that's a REAL goatee :-), the tight crop works very well, I wonder if the main subject is actually related to a goat.

Unfortunately that terrible word is once again in the news this week.

Hola amigo mío,

Una foto realmente interesante, el hombre del primer plano tiene todo el peso de la composición y el resto ayuda a equilibrarla, su rostro tan expresivo nos muestra el paso del tiempo, son lugares donde realmente ves cosas diferentes, bellas y duras a la vez, yo tampoco entiendo las guerras, espero que algún día todos cambiemos y eliminemos nuestro y odio y rencor.

Un abrazo
José
