reality meets fiction in Balat - II Photo

Photographer’s Note

I know that this seems a bit chaotic and crowded, a photo taken in haste, of a TV film crew shooting in the streets, without any traffic restrictions ; so they were constantly interrupted, last post was about a
vegetable seller passing by, now a bright red truck, so clean and a bit like a toy but very much part of the daily reality, was entering the street.

There were plenty of neighbours watching the scene from the windows, kids of course keen to observe what was going on ; also a big and funny black stray dog often intruded, plus constant passers by who could continue their ways as well all sorts of vehicles, motorbikes, cars or trucks.

I was told that the title of the film will be "Hakkini Helal Et", by Samanyolu TV, with Naclu Nazir and Mürsit Bag, please correct me if I wrote this with mistakes !

Bonjour Catherine
Tres bien caputre, tu tea mi au plein milieu de l'action.
Les detailes des batiments sont tres bien captures et les colores sont superbes surtout avec le camion. Je pense si tu avais reusi a capturer le visage de l'home dans l'avant plan, meme si il ne te regarde pas, la photo aurais ete encore plus impactant.
A+

I like the bright, even lighting here, it makes the scene look slightly surreal.

Belle photo de cette préparation a une prise de vue, pour faire une photo de cette rue, vous en déplacez du personnel et du matériel, pas étonnant que vos photos soit si jolies. Je blague bien sur,jolies couleurs, belle prise sous un bel angle qui nous montre bien les détails de ces préparatifs a la prise d' un film je suppose.
Amitiés Thomas
