Photographer's Note

This is the second awfulest demon among 5.
His colothes are very much his masuk.
A powerful pulse was overwhelming.

Hello Takero,

It looks at you fixedly this “alarming” man !!! One feels good on this photograph all the energy which puts your subject to strike, in rate, on this drum. The management of the focus is still excellent with these snowflakes. That heats !!! Thank you Takero.

With all my friendships and very good Sunday,

Jean-Charles

Hello Takero. Hard winter. A demon with a mask. An impressive figure. The mask is to be feared. Adequate composition with narrow frames. Another strong photo in your fantastic series. Rgds, Wolfgang.

Hello Takero

Another powerful study/ Once again superb colours. You always seem to achieve a harmony between the person and the background with the colours in your portraits.

Best wishes

Hi Takero,

WHAT A CREATIVE MASK HE HAS. i LIKE THE EXPRESSION ON HIS FACE. lOOKS LIKE HE IS ANGRY AND WANTS TO SHOW HIS ANGER BEATING THE DRUM. nICE CAPTURE.

ciao Takero,
figura ancora più inquietante se ripresa nel corso della nevicata.
Ottimo scatto con grande attenzione all'inquadratura,
bravo

Hello Takero,

Awful, fascinating, beautiful. Like what religious people say about the gods: love and fear at the same time. (Come to think of it: that's also what some married men say about their wife, but that's another story...)

Great upfront and confrontational picture. Again the drizzling snowflakes are terrific.

Have a fine Sunday.

Benny

Hello Takero,
I hesitate to call this a portrait, but it's a good presentation of a demon anyway. There is a fantastic matching of colours between his clothes and the snowy background on this grey day.
Kind regards,
Gert

Frightening mask...
Well collected his image in picture, snow flackes around him - and yet, keep drumming.
Cheers
Ike

Hi Takero, this series is excellent. I like this one very much. I prefer when they have something on, not only loincloth and the naked bottom that doesn't seem specially sexy. fantastic masque of the demon, looks like his face. Excellent composition, fantastic focus. great dynamics , we almost can hear the drums.

Warm regards

Malgorzata

Hi Takero

What a strong composition. Wonderful portrait with a nice bokeh. You have transmited a music power, force of beat into an action shot. I like it.
Regards
