[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I think this will be the last photo to post from my old Lumix. The tigers meet is a picture that follow up my serie of this beautyful ethinc group in Eritrea. The Tigers meet depicts one of those cultural moments, of course women where not part of it but I believe and I wish that in a different way from our (western) they do have something to say, I don't know the reason for this gathering but I could feel the laid back atmosphere, the heat of the Northern Red Sea Province and the dust almost covering my face.

Hi Rolando,
original and very interesting photo from that beautiful country. You have shown atmosphere of that gathering in good way. I like composition too.
Best regards,
Andrzej

Hello Rolando
I like you frame...lot of faces concentrated in a frame.On my monitor the frame is a bit darker and faces not too brightened,so I made a WS.Hope you don`t mind and I like the toning you choose.TFS

Lucian

Hej Rolando,
Mycket bra komposition. En bild som biter sig fast i minnet.
Hälsningar,
Gert

Hola Rolando. Interesting picture and it see overprocessed. I do like the effect of the people, the colours and the way they seem to pose for the camera. This is a group I never heard of before. Good framing. Thanks Rolando.

Hola Rolando, I could say, OK the quality is not the best here, but your image has something great, the faces they are wrapped with these turbans? they come out here in your image very impressive, the contrast between their skin and the white color of the clothes works ideal.
Cheers
Evan

Hola Rolando,
Me gusta el efecto conseguido con los contrastes tan fuertes y lo bien que has compuesto esta imagen de grupo (a mi siempre me resultan complicadas).
Saludos,
Mirari.

Hello Rolando!
The high contrast is a great idea here! I like the picture's textures, enhanced by the contrast.

Hej Rolando , otroligt vad sammanbitna några ser ut att vara. Det måste ha varit viktiga saker de diskuterade, som den senaste fotbollsmatchen eller liknande :).

Hälsningar

Muy bonita composicion. Las tunicas forman un motivo repetitivo muy bello, aunque hay algo en el contraste y la coloracion que no parecen muy naturales no se si lo perdiste en el escaneo. Estos son conmo la gente del Tigray en etiopia?
Un saludo
Daniel
