Timeless life II Photo

Photographer’s Note

This is a view on the yard of the "multifamily" house in the old medina of Tunis which is one of the biggest one in Tunisia.The lady on the right corner is the housekeeper who doesnt seem to be taking her duties to heart. She doesnt care about the mess in front of the house because this belongs to noone...so why not seating on the stairs and just do nothing. Its better to stare at the passers-by.

Hi Agnieszka,

I like your composition here where you positioned the person. The water hose did something special on the total image. TFS!

kapitalne,
znakomicie wyszło takie dwutematyczne to zdjęcie - nieco starej daty kobieta i w miarę nowoczesne, geometrycznie ciekawe i okraszone fajnymi detalami wnętrze
ładna bajka,
pozdr. j.

Agnieszka

There is something very nice here, all theese colored elements and a kind og geometry, close to abstract painting.
The face in the right angle is just one of the elements, you choosed not to give more importance; maybe you are right, because all her life is here.
Best regards.

Hello Agnieszka!
Your composition is very original and putting your character in this bottom right corner was a bit risky but the result is excellent! Congratulations to you! I agree that the hose pipe is nicely adding to the overall colorful composition. Thanks also for the note, very funny... :-)
Cheers
Vincent

Hello Agnieszka,

Une photo originale dans le cadrage, j'aime bien tous les petits détails et toutes ces touches colorées qui font la compo. Peut-être que la dame est un chouia trop basse dans l'image !

Amicalement,
Stéphanie.

Ale fajna kompozycja. Świetnie wygląda ta kobieta w rogu i ten wąż wijący się za nią. No i kolorki jak się patrzy. Super. Pozdrawiam.

Witaj Agnieszko,

a to ci wyszlo! Poprostu fenomenalny crop, troszke dziwny ale wymowny. Wyraz twarzy tej kobiety jest kapitalny.

Hi Agnieszka...
It's a very interesting but beautiful point of view and great composition... It's also very local composition too... The details, the colors and the soft light are perfect...
TFS...
Stay well..
Salim.

Well captured the mood of the worker lady the frowns on her fore head are very distinctive and you note explains it properly.

Hi Agnieszka,
Well composed with good use of the vertical format for depth and impact. I like the crisp clear view and the way the hose snakes along the floor. The colourfully dressed woman housekeeper is well captured and your note is most apropos. Well captured and presented, Agnieszka.

Very interesting composition Agnie. It's almost as if you placed each item exactly where you wanted it in your photo. That hose fills the space on the floor perfectly. Great job. The result is a very unique photo.
Regards,
Ryan
P.S. You have a great gallery.

Agnieszka: some fine material in your pages. This one grabs attention for innovative composition. Perhaps it was an accident on your part, but the shot works great. regards, c

Luan (15935) 2006-11-03 7:04

Love this framing Agnieszka, original, extrem...brillant. The scene behind her is the key of the picture...
Great one

Hi Agnieszka,
excellent inusual PoV with great impact due of the position of the rubber pipe.
Have a nice weekend!

Hello Agnieszka,
Composition is original and effective putting the housekeeper in the extreme corner. I also like the focus not being on her face. She does look miserable. Regards,
Hakan

michiels (4170) 2008-02-22 8:03

hello,

I like this one very much, the compo with the woman almost out of the frame. the only minus thing is the bucket, it's a pity that it's standing there ;))
greetings, inn
