Photographer’s Note

He walked the streets as if they were his own, jaded with all the tourists scrambling from shop to shop.

been a long time I didin't see a photo from you here. And this one is excellent. Superb composition with the man coming into the photo and superb contrasted b&w.
Love those blurred silhouettes, makes me think of the statues of Giacometti.
Respect...

Hi Brendan,
good film noir atmosphere here! Wish the man stood out a little more though, especially his hat. Still, I like this moody shot.

today's a a Brendan time - I guess...
Another unusual and rather unique presentation...
(A reason good enough to spend few minutes on your site)...
Even though I don't know (again ! :-))) what is that thing in his mouth and what's the purpose of that other thing (a dicky thing on the far bottom right) - I love your babe tremendously...
Why - you may ask ?

The POV (very polonaisque - I think), and those blacks in there...
My kind of hot, black pepper soup, good buddy..

I just miss some smoke coming out of that cigarette. It would be perfect with it. But the mood is really great even without it. Very cinematic. I love the b&w. Nice...

Hi Brendan,

Such a mood here! As if out a Fellini's movie...

Love the 3 blurred people on the bg. It would be nice if they have heads, but this way it leaves place for thought...

Regards,

Flavia

Hi Brendan,

très bonne composition avec ce personnage dans le bas du cadre, on a presque l'impression de regarder avec lui (ou à sa place) avec cette mise au point très nette sur lui et le reste de l'image floutée
bravo
