Hey Bert

A clever reversal. The blurs are not where they should be. Instead of a fast moving tram blurred, you blurred the people. Great black and white with really nice tonal range.

Hi Bert, like the metaphor you mentioned here, kind of makes you feel a bit sad. And the b&w from the 30D's are superb, real nice tones throughout. Congrats. Great capture and timing.

Dag Bert,
mooie compositie en gtrappig dat zelfs dit oude dametje nog bewegingsonscherpte veroorzaakt. (Of flitste ze werkelijk langs met haar stok?)
Groeten Gerrit

Hallo Bert,

Een beeld dat mij wel erg bekent overkomt, deze scene op de Korenmarkt te Gent, uw beschrijft het zelf, de sluitertijd wat verhoogd wat natuurlijk leid tot de lichte beweging van de personen maar een goede scherpte van de tram naar Wondelgem, wat was precies de reden van deze in ZW te presenteren?

Groeten uit een koel Vlaanderen met een temp van 5,6° C en een strakke NW wind, prettig weekend verder.
John.

Hallo Bert,
Ik ken die disco dreuner van Dan Hartman nog wel, ook deze man heeft onze aardkloot al verlaten.
Je foto is prachtig en geeft precies weer wat je in gedachten had. Mooi gecomponeed zo dat alles rechts binnenkomt en links ons weer gaat verlaten...prima werk..!!!
Prettig weekend, Henk

Hi Bert,
A skilful and effective street scene that carries a lot of punch. The dichotomy between the young couple and the elderly lady is indeed striking here. The very texture of the pavement and cobblestones are discernible with a superb motion blur. The bus provides additional dynamism, while all about are shops and windows to heighten the interest and graphism. First rate, Bert.

Hi Bert. A keenly observed urban scene. A double encounter of generations of sorts - the young couple versus the old woman, and the modern tram traversing the cobblestone-paved old street. Fun add with the motion blur, particularly as it is in the people and not in the tram as others might have had it. I don't see an instantly compelling urge to go b&w with this one, but it sure doesn't look bad on it. Have a nice weekend.

Hi Bert,

A really great street shot. I really like the idea of a low shutter speeds. It adds a lot dynamism to your picture. Even if the old woman's stick seems speedier that herself. Have nice day!

Cheers,

Ulf

Hi Bert,

That's life, according your interesting note. In Spain, there was a pop singer (well, he has been famous, Julio Iglesias). One of his songs sayed that (well, I translate and everything is possible): someones coming in, someones coming out, the life follos unchanged. Very nice idea in the shot, I like the gray tone, the blur effect in the people enhancing the movement idea, the time passing, or, better, our life passing! Great shot, Bert! Thanks.

Angel.

Your imagination is really impressive. The meaning of the scene is really strong and you composed that well. A kind of poetry in a certain way too !

Hi Bert,
Excellent street photography. As against the hurried footsteps of the younger couple the measured steps of the old woman is quite a contrast.
Best Wishes for the New Year
