Photographer’s Note

Colorful Belleville district in Paris. Saturday morning shooting with Eric in empty streets. I think I know why Eric wanted me to upload this photo to TE...

Hi Maciej.
Mmhhh very good compo.
The idea and the realizatio is very good.
I like this framing and this sharpness on the foreground. On the back a little blur with a perfect mouvment.
Colors of the panel and the t-shirt...., perfect
Good backround too with a nice light.
Great shot
Fred

Witaj Maciek, cos rzadko wrzucasz zdjecia. Zdjecie podoba mi sie ze wzglwdu na kolory i na lekkie rozmazanie. Wyglada jak zdjecia z czasopism mody. Bardzo rozowe i kobiece.

This is a brilliant capture. Maciej, let7s not mnce words. Why? hey, first of all te pruple of the sign is mirrored by her shirt, then you have the whole irony of the title: SHE'S not the Gospel Dream they're thinking about...Other layer, the green backed graffiti background. It's beautiful graphically and philosophically. One of your more layered pics.
Bravo! Francis
ps Isn't Paris great after Cardfiff, huh?

Another great composition, from you. Poster and women have a exackly the same colours (white and violet). I really like your captured. Wall on the backgroun with graffiti go with to this image. Sharpness and quality is very good. good luck

It's nice to look at this image, thank you for it Maciek.
A strong composition with lot of freshness in the mixing of purple & turquoise colours. A very lovely girl going forwards in her life with her head a bit up "Life smiles to me, and here I'm..."

I just wonder what made you frame precisely in the text "CHANTS AUTHENTIQUES", not just above or under...

zig (2450) 2005-06-27 7:50

The colours are really nice. And how lucky you saw this woman in purple skirt and white skirt that matches to the sign colours! I might spend a whole week just waiting for a woman in the perfect cloths like this!!

Fortune is a very good factor for a street photography, I think.

erdna (5360) 2005-06-27 11:24

With this picture it is "girl dream" for me. Who cares about the sign. She is pretty. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Hi Maciej,

eleparc (24059) 2005-06-27 13:59

haha! i quite like it to be honest! the clear poster and the girl passing in the background makes a nice unity, even in the colors displayed. i really enjoyed shooting with you ;-)

A very nice effect of motion, Maciek. TEh horizontal line increas this effect. I also like thematching hues of purple on her shirt and on the sign. A very good one.

bnallama (3755) 2005-06-27 16:23

Hi Maciej, this is lovely colors and light. Well done. Yep feels like a dream. Bala

Oh! Very beautiful, very original. I love the out of focus woman here, which makes the shot soooo dreamy. Lovely, airy.

Very nice, esp. the purple/green color contrast and the soft focus on the woman. Pup made it right, a dreamy feeling.
I prefer that background blurry texture to the harsh sharp post in the foreground, can't help but wonder what it would have been with the same blurryness quality all over...

nerve (10212) 2005-06-30 3:49

Hi Maciej
Nice purple here (Catches me immediately! my favourite one :) and a nice image overall..

i like the lines in the composition too.. I dont know what your aperture was but i wish you made it even stronger.. (so more shallow in the background.. just the wide end i mean) But maybe its just my wrong view..

Good work.

sohrab (7423) 2005-07-04 6:44

fabulous once again... you should seriosuly consider holdingan exhibition.. your urban photographa are simply out of the world..
i also had a quick look during my trip at your gallery of photographs of lifeless things or something like that???
it was very very good as well...
post it here too
take care:)

moxon (457) 2005-07-04 8:00

Not your usual shot of Paris but somehow this looks very dreamy and beautiful to me. I love the blur and those gorgeous colours.

nie podoba mi sie zupelnie. Po pierwsze, ta typowa dla cyfrowek glebia ostrosci, zupelnie inaczej gdybys az taka roznice na filmie chcial uzyskac miedzy napisem a tlem, ale tutaj razi to tlo, az taka ilosc nieostrego przy jednynie fragmencie - napisie - malo ciekawym samym w sobie. Poza tym czekanie przy jakims znaku drogowym az ktos przejdzie obok wydaje mi sie troche ograne i powinno byc jakos lepiej uzasadnione, tu nie jest zupelnie. No i wreszcie pozycja dziewczyny w kadrze, zupelnie nie gra, jest za wielka i nieprzyjemnie centralnie
