Mending, a photo from Bari, Apulia

Photographer's Note

After several months away - not only from TE but almost completely from photography in general, with the starting of the warm season I have taken my camera out of the closet again... Here are two old fishermen in the small port of Mola at their patient daily work...

Hello Gunether
Always the same ambiance with fishermen, worlwide.

Ciao Guenther! Belli i colori che inquadrano la scena dei pescatori che rammendano. Il rosso e il blu rendono vivida l'immagine .
Ciao!
Livia

Ciao Günther,
Beautiful and colourful daily life-picture of this teamwork.
Nice colour contrast between the blue boats on the background and the red chair and the reddish fishnets.
Best regards, Paul

Hi Guenther
a wonderful study this. The concentration is palpable and the attention to detail perfect. I really like the light and the way it plays on the strands of netting. A wonderful mix of elements and colours all presented beautifully.

Warm wishes - Brian.

Ciao Guenther,

Nice that after these months without a camera you are again here. Camera for sure longed to be used. Beautiful scene from the life of fishermen. It must be a hard work with the nets. Nice boats behind, all blue.

Warm regrads

Hello Guenther,
Good you see you posting again. There is something timeless about this scene with the fishermen mending their nets in the sunshine. I find the reds and blues very appealing. Very well photographed.
Regards, Ann

Un'altra volta in Puglia ... ricordo l'anno scorso ..le belle chiese.
Vedo che i "vecchi" aggiustano le reti bucate.
Ottimo lavoro ...con sicura resa anche il BW.

Caro Guenther

BENTORNATO! Mi manchi, ma almeno ci ho visto su FB. Adoro questo tipo di foto. Molto caratteristica e tipicamente Italiano. Bellissima la nitidezza, línquadratura ed il gioco di luce ed ombra. Ottimo lavoro e ti auguro una bella giornata.

Un caro saluto
Lisa

Hello Guenther
Nice to see some new posts from you! This is a corker: very nicely composed with a kind of circular pattern going from the blues in the line of boats, through the fishermen, to the object of their attentions, the pinks and reds of the nets (and of course the chair!). I also like the fact that they seem oblivious to your camera's presence. Good work.
Regards
Will

Beautiful capture of the daily life of people. I don't how those fisherment can untangle those long fishing nets but they do. Great lighting and good details. Wonderful colors. Well done, tfs.

Hallo Guenther. Hier zeigst Du ein Photo mitten aus dem Leben. Das Flicken der Netze ist eine Tätigkeit, die Stetigkeit und Geduld verlangt. Aber vielleicht kann man die Netze flicken und zugleich noch an andere Dinge denken. Das Alltagsphoto gefällt mir, weil es sehr natürlich ist. Gut gemacht. Viele Grüße, Wolfgang.
