[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
These soldiers are guarding the unknown solider's tomb in downtown Warsaw. Much like the Bickingham Palace guards, they must not smile while hundreads of people photograph them.

Hola Daniel, Muy buena composición de la foto,es como un retrato robado, los colores son excelentes.Muchos saludos, Rafael

Daniel, very professional control of the contrast and the point of view is very interesting. I like too, the arms and the scene of soldiers.
Sergio

bonsoir Daniel
belle photo, tu t'es bien débrouillé avec le choix du focus. j'aime bien l'angle de prise de vue, sur le côté. ils ont très sérieux effectivement. la bordure de verdure à gauche est fort bien venue.

muy buena composicion amigo


abrazos

Hola Daniel.

ME gusta, lo único que no hubiera hecho es cortarle brazo izquierdo al guardia de la derecha.

A pesar de ello (a mi gusto), una bonita hora.

Un saludo, Oscar

hola daniel again,
good theme, just wonder if the reverse side wouldnt be a bit better for the reason of that door to the tomb spoiling a bit the place;
have a good week,
j.

Hey Daniel,

the not smiling part is probably due to the sadness of the situation. Which I never understood about Buckingham. They cant smoile, but why? Its not exactly something sad they are guarding. But these guys, I can understand. Nicely mnaged light, very stoic looking men.

Well captured looks and well composed picture Daniel, lovely work, compliments!!

have a nice week,
Fabio.

Hola Daniel
interessante retrato y el apañado no de frente le mostra mas interessante
buenas colores
saludos

Salut Daniel
J'aime bien ce cadrage qui laisse effectivment un mystère sur ce qu'il se passe entre les 2 gardes.
Amicalement

Hi Daniel - well framed, the position of the soldiers and the parallel poses are great, maybe I would prefer to put something between them, like move a little to the left and get more of the iron gate.

Hi Daniel
Good capture. I like the patterns you caught in the guns and the effect of the contrast on the tones. Good framing and nice use of the angle to capture both soldiers. Good work.
