Need charcoal ? Photo

Photographer’s Note

I liked the colors of that little house at Roura, and the advertisement signs ... still wondering what "FOUP" is about though ! Any idea ?

Pascal~
I love the colors on this photo! This image reminds me of a pop art painting, it is very bold. Perhaps "FOUP" is really ment to be "SOUP"? It looks like a soup can is painted under it. Well done!

i like the rustic feel to this shot. the faded colours work really well. it's a simple composition but it has been executed really well. congratulations

Hello Pascal. This is an unusual photo with beautiful colours. Everything looks old, but still as if someone cares - the charbon sign is quite bright. This picture looks almost like an ink-and-watercolour painting, you know. I don't know what FOUP means, but is that a slot for putting the money in, between the F and the O? A very appealing photo, which I think I will put in my favourites. It's the best shot of a door that I have seen on TE.
Regards,
Andrew

Hello,

Très jolie image ! Bien composée.
Le mot sur la porte n'est pas FOUP mais FLOUP ! Il s'agit de créole et ce la signifie une "action rapide" !
Je pense que cela signifie que le charbon est en action !
Je présume !
A+

This has a nice charming feel to it. These colors are fantastic. I like the old crumbling steps with grass growing on them. The handmade signs are so nice. The compo all goes together well. I would have to agree with Sasha on the SOUP theory.

Regards,
Brian
