Hallo Wolfgang!

Wen meinst du denn im Titel? Den Mann oder die Taube?:p Gute "Einigung" zwischen den zwei um deinem Titel eine doppelte Bedeutung zu geben. Ich finde die Symolik richitg toll.

Alles Gute
Adrian

Hallo Wolfgang!
Das sieht ganz nach einem Sudoku oder Kreuzworträtsel aus ...
Eine schöne, total entspannte Atmosphäre strahlt dieses Bild aus und man sieht, dass der Herr länger draußen bleiben will - die Wasserflasche zeigt's. Schön, dass ihr heute so tolles Wetter hattet, hier kam die Sonne erst am Nachmittag raus.
Die Bildaufteilung ist Dir sehr gelungen!
Alles Gute aus dem recht kühlen Siegerland!
Frank

Hallo Wolfgang,
schöne Aufnahme aus dem täglichen Leben. Ein gutes Zusammenspiel von gedeckten Farben mit dem roten Farbklecks. Das i-tüpfelchen ist natürlich die Taube.
Viele Grüße
Hartmut

Hallo Wolfgang,
dem Bild nach zu urteilen ist der Mann kurzsichtig. Ist eher selten, dass ein Mann in diesem Alter zum Lesen seine Brille ablegt. Die neugierige Taube gefällt mir gut in der linken unteren Ecke und ich frage mich, ob die Reinigung die einigung wieder beseitigen muss. ;-)
Viele Grüße aus dem Donautal,
Helmut

Hello Wolfgang,
nice tight framing of this little cameo scene. Nice light and sharpness.Sorry for my ignorance but what does the writing say in english translation?
best regards,
Bev

Hello Woflgang,

Perhaps also the Sudoku moment !!! An original instantaneous photograph. This man with his red coat arises well on his environment. I like much the good luminosity and… this pigeon which seems also very interested by your subject !!! Well done Wolfgang.

With all my friendships and a very good evening,

Jean-Charles

Hi Wolfgang,
very curious and funny this scene with the man and pigeon. Great shot, my friend.
Regards,
Lucas

Hi Wolfgang,
A fine picture, where you have included this eye-catching man in red. He is also well placed according to the third. The part of a word beneath him puzzles and give rise to questions. What was the total message? Is it about "Reinigung"? But what more? The pidgeon may have the answers!
Kind regards
Gunnar

Hello Wolfgang,
A good capture of this man who looks as if he is doing the daily crossword. The pigeon inquisitively watching him is a definite bonus; perhaps it could give him one or two clues :-) Very good light and colours. The backdrop of golden toned stones contrasts well with his red jacket. An amusing daily life image to appreciate, thanks for sharing.

rbassin (4267) 2009-10-20 4:08

Hello Wolfgang,
Une belle composition, j'aime bien le personnage dans sa lecture qui ignore totalement le pigeon .
Bonnes couleurs et bon graphisme.
Bonne journée
Roland

holmertz (9963) 2009-10-20 7:53

Hello Wolfgang,
A catchy and amusing picture, a bit thought-provoking and with fine details. A red coat to attract the view, a pleasant neutral background, a puzzling word and a pigeon leaning its head like it's trying to read the graffiti.
Regards,
Gert

Hallo Wolfgang,
sehr schöne Szene aus dem Kasseler Alltag! Das starke Licht betont die Graffiti (ich bin mir sicher, dass Du die erste Hälfte ausgespart hast!). Wie die Taube den Leser beäugt, ist ganz köstlich. Ein Bild, das viele Geschichten erzählt. Kompliment!
Herzliche Grüße aus dem trüben Norden,
Harriet

Bonjour Wolfgang.
Cette photo est très belle. J'aime cette composition avec l'homme et le pigeon dans la même diagonale. La lumière est divine.
Que du bon !
Amical salut
Jacques

Hallo Wolfgang,

ein weiteres, exemplarisch schönes Bild, dass Dein tolles Auge für doppeldeutige Motive ausdrücklich bestätigt..
klasse Bild, mein Kompliment..

schönes Wochenende, Gruß Bernd

danos (33272) 2009-10-24 2:58

Good morning Wolfgang,
a really nice snapshot with the man solving i think the crossword puzzle or the sudoku of the newspaper.His red windcheater is the eye catcher of the scene.Well done.

Have a nice weekend,Dnaos

Angshu (34099) 2009-11-01 0:21

Hello Wolfgang
Without the word scrawled across in white, this would not have been the same picture..it adds to the image a lot, as does the pigeon who seems to be in attentive mode. Our subject here seems to be doing crossword or sudoku. Well captured!
Best Regards
Angshu

fanni (8879) 2009-11-04 13:58

Hello Wolfgang,
I like the way you notice and capture such daily life scenes! For an unknown reason I like very much the inclusion of the pigeon in the photo :)
Warm regards,
Elena

Rafer (4520) 2009-11-10 22:32

Genial composicióna todo color...saludos

baba_flies (8099) 2009-11-18 10:33

Hallo Wolfang! Du findest immer so spannende Kombinationen. Der Leser alleine waere auch interessant, aber der Schriftzug unten durch, diese "einigung", das ist das Ding, das man erkennen muss, um spannende Strassenfotos zu schiessen. Wirklich sehr sehr gut. Okay die Taube, die ist auch nett, aber der wirkliche Kick ist diese Schrift ... und vielleicht seine Sandalen :))) Na ja, wir Frauen sehen halt so was ... ja ich weiss GESUND ... Gruesse + gute Nacht ... Barbara.

Didi (36442) 2009-11-22 10:21

Hallo Wolfgang
Nice scene of daily life with a touch of humour by the presence of the pidgeon who have a curious attitude face to the man.
Well done.
Best regards

Hallo Wofgang,
Ein Thema, das mich immer sehr interessiert hat. In meine Archiven gibt es auch verschiedene "Lesende".
Dein Bild gefällt mir sehr gut, besonders wegen seines schönen Lichts und der "fotogenen" Umgebung. Ein Plus ist noch die neugierige Taube.
Interessantes und schön gestaltetes Bild.
Herzlich grüsst
Anne
