Sprzedawczyni w sklepie spożywczym Photo

Photographer’s Note

I've approached her somewhere between the tray full of German schnitzels and the pork chops and a barrel with the Polish pickles.
My 20mm. resting comfortably on her shoulder. The aroma of the well seasoned, smoked sausage fills the air. It feels good.

............

The Polish title?
Even I don't know how to pronounce and I'm the one who had written it down ! :-)))

" My 20mm. resting comfortably on her shoulder. The aroma of the well seasoned, smoked sausage fills the air.." - you have no idea what's going through my head ;)

Polish pickles are prepered using cucumbers..or is it a fruit shaped like the cucumber..unlike pickles in this part of the world..mainly from mango skin..

To jest o sprzedawczyni w sklepie spozywczym ???
Nie sadze. Baba jak baba.

To jest o czym innym. To jest lekcja o kadrowaniu.
Ty tak masz wrodzone zdolnosci, czy tez nauczyli Cie gdzies filmowych zasad, czy tez naogladales sie, i samouk, ale jestem pewna, ze chodzi tutaj o jakas klasyczna sztuczke, zasade, ktora polega na znalezieniu kata do pokazania sytuacji typu sklep w sposob trojwymiarowy.

Niby takie proste, i na pewno klasyczne.

Ja sie na zasadach nie znam, i zadnych sztuczek nie potrafie. Wale jako wiekszosc glupow na TE frontalnie i plasko, nieraz zgrywajac plany albo "innowujac" jak tysiace innych siadajac na ziemi itd...ale cos takiego, jak technika kadrowania znad ramienia sklepowej, w sposob taki niby prosty, azeby ujac i sklepowa, i towar, i klientow, to jeszcze nie wpadlam. A ty juz takie robiles przecie...a ja sie patrzylam pod katem kolorow czy tez pieknego usmiechu, i nigdy nie zdalam sobie sprawy, jak to jest prosto ale skutecznie zbudowane.

Dopiero teraz, gdy sprzedawczyni sama w sobie, ani towar sam w sobie, nie maja nic szczegolnie "pysznego", wpadlam na to, "JAK TO JEST ZROBIONE, GDZIE JUREK STAL".

Powinnam to napisac po angielsku, bo jest to lekcja pogladowa, ale wybacz, jest 7.32 a.m, a ja jeszcze nie wypilam kawy.

Szkoda, ze juz nie mozna zmieniac krytyk, bo walnelabym to po angielsku, ale nie kagda...

Morda, podelcu, obraziles sie na mnie, czy co ?

Z ranka. Grazyna.

Hello George,
A strong photo that leaves the viewer with some uncertainty of what is it all about. Is there more than only sausages ?
Regards,
Paul

you should have really placed your camera on her shoulder in order to get this one!
did you sit there like a parrot on her shoulder? :))
the compo with three heads and the focus are so good. i also like a lot the dark chocolate palette...

Ah, George, my dear George... Knoedeln mit Gulash is better! And you don't know how I can cook them! Come here and taste!

Nie wiem czy tyś się uczył od Sergio Leone czy on od Ciebie ... :-)
Nieważne ...
Ważne, że dopiero wiele lat po jego największych dziełach zaczęto "kręcić filmy" w podobnym stylu jak on, jak ty.
Zbliżenie, Cięcie, Kadr, Background ...
Zaczęto robić zdjęcia jak ON, jak TY.

hey George!

No way, I would not pass you by.

I find it strange that every time I pass by a market, the camera would also point to the counter girls like this one, be it Polish, Italian, Chinese or whatever origins. It sure happened in Melbourne a few days, despite being there only for short days.

For my case, it was purely hoping that the girl would be kind hearted and infatuated that she would give generous discounts on the good food.

While you were on focus on the girl's face, I might try to focus with high DOF on the food as well, because I am hungry and curious about the kind of food she is selling.

I think you have overstayed in metro Toronto too long, you need to get out and run through the jungles like Borneo.

All the best from Borneo, if you know where it is :p
