[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Around the swimming pool of Christmas Flats in Kinshasa... one of the places were you can rest and take a Primus (Kinshasa local beer) in a quiet and private environment.
Nothing special... but, my eye was catched by this night scene with the crude light being diffused by the textured wall in the rear.

Hello Eric. Your beautiful photo is above all TENDENCY FULL. The light is fantastic. The yellow wall is the ideal contrast to the men at the table. A wonderful motive. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Salut Eric, moi aussi je découvre - et je commence par ta dernière : elle me plait beaucoup, le cadrage, ce groupe d'hommes qui bougent un peu dans la pénombre en discutant...
Bravo !
Cath.

Hello Eric,
Unique atmosphere under the single light. Drinking and chatting... I like the way you have left considerable space above the table. I checked your recent Congo photos and they are all great! Regards,
Hakan

Hi Eric,

picture with a lot of atmosphere and great colors. I like the way some of these "silhouettes" are blurred and others are quite clear. As if the men are playing cards (or just drinking) with some "ghost" companions.

Bonjour Eric
J'espère que tu vas bien
j'aime beaucoup cette atmosphere feutrée devant le mur jaune. Le lampadaire est le point de fixation autour duquel tout s'organise
C'est très beau
Amicalement
Bertrand

Hi Eric,
very good capture, good scene, very good light and colours....
it´s only a pity that you cropped it so tight and cut off a part of the feet.
I like it ! Cheers Christian

Bonsoir Eric,
J'adore cette image.
Joyeux Noël!
Philippe.

Quelle belle ambiance.
Le flou ajoute encore un peu d'énigme à cette image.
C'est bien vu et bien fait.
Bravo.
Reynald
