The purple girl on the yellow street Photo

Photographer’s Note

On the medina usually we find very attractif things to buy, to deal, to look, to touch...every thing is different and all can be interesting. Usually we have all our sens focused on all this new things...usually we don't see that this place is the place where many people lives...and not always in best conditions. Usually the medinas are the old town of the city, and not the riches. Sometimes the colourfoul side, hiddes another side...

Salut Javier,

Amazing yellow colored facade illuminates the narrow alley very well and helped you for a perfect capture. Excellent depth and perspective naturally while her pose adding great value to your frame. Congratulations.

Amitiés,

Hi Javier,
best thing that can happen is that your subject keeps the natural position even when photographed.
You got it !
I like it, cheers Chris

Hi Javier!
You are so right - usually we don't see these places or at least forget to take pictures of them - because they are "not" an attraction.
However you have managed to get a great picture here of a street that might otherwise have been "hidden" from us!
Great POV that makes the buildings look like they're almost leaning. Like the detail with the girl - it gives life to the scene!
TFS

Hello Javier
Thank you for this photo that shows the reality of the streets (derb) of the medina ...
It is true that this is not always wealth, but I love them so.
They often have a great "human wealth", we have lost.
Regards
Marc

Hello Javier,
Cette rue étroite est très belle et animée par des couleurs vives et par de bons effet de lumière.
Bonne soirée

Hi Javier
An interesting shot of this slice of life. The girl is well positioned in the frame and I like the pose with part of her face hiding behind her knee.

Ciao Javier!
Ci sono due tipi di fotografi: quelli che riescono a catturare magnificamente le bellezze dell'arte e della natura e quelli che invece fotografano elementi della vita quotidiana cogliendone gli aspetti più particolari.
Tu sei uno dei pochi che possiede entrambi i tipi di sensibilità.
Complimenti, le tue foto mi hanno particolarmente colpito.

Ciao!

Elena
