[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The photo of this "falling" man was taken in Linköping in "I-don't-remember-the-name" street :) ...
Actually, the picture of the man is the size of a human being and it was painted on the wall about 5-6 meters above the ground.

The day wasn't sunny, it was almost drizzling but my film camera managed to capture the colours and the details of the picture (thanks to the lighting, I guess. No deep contrast light).

This is a scan from a Kodak negative film.
====================================================
Sorry about the BIG size of the photo: first I thought to crop it a lot and leave only the man and the window.
Then I thought it would be better to make the whole image smaller.
And finally I left it as it is because I wanted to show the BIG wall (it was really big) and the details of the picture on the wall.

Any critique concerning the size & quality is welcome!

Hello Fanni,
This is interesting. I saw a collection of trompe l'oeil-pictures on TE recently, but I think they were mainly from central Europe. I didn't expect anything like that from Sweden. Or maybe I'm just ignorant. Anyway, it's a nice capture and I think the size serves it right.
Best wishes,
Gert

Hello Elena,

This is an imaginative shot, and it is better large than small. For a scanned negative, the resolution and colors are very good. Warm regards,

Bulent

great shot, I lie shots like these, very funny

Hello Elena
Such a funny photo and a quality scan although it is only 8 years old. TFS, Marlene

Hallo Elena. Ein fallender Mann an der Hauswand. Das Photo ist ein Blickfang. Schon deswegen ist es sehenswert. Gut beobachtet und photographisch realisert. Gruss, Wolfgang.
