Jungle Art, a photo from Goa, West

Photographer's Note

This sculpture and the other in BG was created by my friend Jungle (he has lived in Goa for many years).
The sculpture is made from clay, some cement, plants and mineral crystals.
Like almost all the artists he is poor and exploited.

Hi Valter.
Well taken photo and very effective panoramic crop. The subject is very interesting, and appears to be very large. I agree with Denis (dta) about the angle of view - very well chosen.
Regards,
Andrew

Hello Valter. Even in the thumbnail I recognize the essential message of the picture. The photo pleases me very well. It is a true work of art. Above all, the composition is masterful. The panorama looks best. Rgds wolfgang.

Hello Valter,

What a fascinating story and what an even more fascinating photograph!

I find it difficult to get a sense of scale here but my general impression is that this sculpture is really quite large. You have certainly taken it from a very interesting viewpoint which accentuates the features of this work of art.

I could sit and look at this picture for ages - that surely must mean that it's an interesting picture! And your friend Jungle must be an interesting fellow too, I guess?

Great viewpoint, lovely colours and a technically perfect photograph.

Bravo!

Kind Regards,

John.

Hi Valter,

Original sculpture, very well shown. Funny with the leaves at the right places. The panoramic format suits well the subject. The one in the background is not bad neither, and the main one sort of leads to it.

Cheers,
Claude

An impressive environmental sculpture, Valter, orange tone dominated on red soil and green grass-carpet.
Fine shot with good depth as we see the BG sculptures as well.
Lovely compo.
Ciao

Hello Valter,

Beautiful piece of art. The credit goes to the creator and the photographer. Great angle of view with superb colors and sharpness. I like the combination of green and orange. My congratulations to your friend for his excellent work.

Già Valter,
gli artisti vengono quasi sempre riconosciuti dopo la loro morte. Chissà perchè!
Vedi Picasso e Van Cogh, ad esempio!
Ti ringrazio per averci mostrato questa scultura che trovo originale.
Luce ben gestita e interessante resa cromatica.

Un saluto!
L'Assessore

Ciao Valter
Ancora non ci sono andato...! Belli i colori tipici della terra di Goa e un bel panoramico (si potrebbe fare anche i piedi con un "stitch"!)
Un saluto
Vieni in Gennaio? Saremmo via per un po pero torniamo presto!

Hi Valter.

I love the warm cold color contrasts here between the reddish reclining female statue & the blue sky. Good sharpness & well composed. The wide angled panoramic format was a good choice. Ciao!

Ciao Valter,questa è una foto che bisogna contemplare nei minimi dettagli per entrare nell' anima di chi l' ha creata che deve esser stato di una grandissima sensibilità e profondità. Grazie a te caro Valter, anche noi abbiamo l' opportunità di vederla anche perchè credo che dal vivo molti di noi non la vedranno mai. In questo "magico" rettangolo hai messo tutto ciò che ci doveva stare e lo hai fatto in modo perfetto. Grazie del post, un saluto ed augurio di buone feste ... Marino

Good Morning Valter,

A most unusual sculpture!
Your pov uses it well as a dividing line for composition. Excellent diagonals and fine sharpness.

Have a good day,
Bev :-)

Caro Valter

Molto particolare questa scultura. La prospettiva e composizione sono eccellente. La profundita di campo e' proprio stupenda. Il tuo amico e' un grande talento. Complimenti a te e al tuo amico.

Un abbraccio
