Photographer’s Note

Chec-Republic is a real beerdrinking society.
some biergartens are just paved parkingspots by a supermarket. People come there from early in the morning till late at night to drink. The beer is very cheap but tastfull :)

Wonderful composition. I like how the fence on the right side of the frame leads my eyes to the beer drinking man on the left. Your choice of B&W really enchances the shot for me. I just wish that the image was a bit sharper overall, but that's just a minor thing (I'm sure your original is quite sharp given the equipment you're using). Well done!

i like the composition here. intersting expression on the face. BW adds to the moody sense of the image. good work.

The sombre tones seem to match the mood of the subject and the bright white of the van in the bckground gives this otherwise contemplative shot a jolt.
Nice work Jorrit

Warm beer, cold women I just dont fit in. Jorrit, I like your taste. Tom Is one of the best. I like the fence, It brings you right in to the photo. Great pictures.. Matt

Great composition. The fence leads the viewer right to the man staring out over his beer. The B&W adds to the contemplative mood. Well done.
