Photographer’s Note

Not far from the famous Acapulco place you find quite a different scenery to what we know from the postcards... No more luxury hotels and crowded streets, no more noisy tourists - just a vast sandy beaches, palm tree forests, and a melody of ocean...

No i znowu super. Dziś prawdziwy wypas. Podoba mi się gest, kadr, kontrast. Fajnie, fajnie...
Pozdrawiam.

Troche mnie niepokoi dlaczego: Mexico, zamiast Meksyk. Musze pomyslec)
Co do zdjecia, jest tu jakas "lekkosc bytu", ktora okazuje sie byc za lekka na moja wrazliwosc.. Moglo byc symbolicznie i oszczednie ale nie umiem sie wzbic na poziom poezji majac sklecone rudery z tylu i jednak niezwykle detaliczne postacie. Ladnie biegnie chlopczyk ale on jest taki malutki a piasku tyle dokola..Gdyby ten piasek cos jeszcze dawal czy dodawal.. Chyba wolalabym wyrazniejsza mysl niz ta maniana..

z serdecznosciami,
agn

HI J,
Nice framing on that little child running down the strand.
Th B&W works well. Such a picture would be more effective on the real, big size...
Cheers
Marc

hello Jerzy,
the empty space in the foreground tells the story of your note, no tourist just asandy beack. I like the dynamic of the track that makes a diagonal cut, jinking just where the child runs. I like that the child is shown so tiny against the vastness of the beach. These elements work well in black & white.
Bev.

Run little one, Run!
I am watching you!
I am watching you!

Jerzy, are you a Dad?! I am not a Dad yet, but hope to be a Dad one day.... And when that day comes, and my son is of an age and able to run down the sandy shore and into the surf on his own accord I will simply raise my arm and say "that's my boy!".

What a proud and emotional moment that must be!

Very grand :) Casper
