Hello Manuel,
A great composition, my friend!
Most would give her space to walk into... I'm happy you did otherwise here!
Good dynamics with movement in opposite directions... Well done!
Greetings,

Bonjour, mon ami Manuel,
Pour un premier portrait, il est très réussi. J'aime beaucoup l'originalité de la composition.
Savant mélange entre le noir et blanc de l'arrière-plan et de l'avant-plan.
Félicitations.
Amitiés.

Hola hermano

Interesante barrido fotografico o como lo llamamos algunos PANEO. Buena captura aunque es dificil. El perfil es una composición adecuada con el fonde mural. Muy artistica. No recuerdo algo así antes, como dicen en la nota. Creo que estos últimos días te estan sentando muy bien.
Un abrazo
Sergio

Hello Manuel
Great shot with nice tension between background and foreground. You look like going to visit something that fransforms you, as shown by the people in the row. You're going to losse colour and speed....
Nice composition.
Greetings,
Huub de K.

Hola Manuel.

Me gusta mucho la idea del hombre en primer plano con el mural por detrás. Además, el hecho de que sea un autoretrato es original, lo cual se aplaude.

Un saludo, Oscar

Uma excelente composição meu Amigo Manuel.
Gosto muito do contraste entre o Mural cinzento e os restantes elementos a cor. O enquadramento está fantastico.
Um grande abraço,

Olá Manuel,
tu primer retrato es muy bueno, me gusta cómo has creado este gran contraste entre el personaje y la planta en color y el fondo en B & N. La composición está muy bien pensada, y la has hecho muy bien.
Un saludo,
Josep

Hi Manuel,
Nice picture with interesting graphical composition ! I like the b/w wall on the back and the colors of the man and of the leaves...
Great !
Christophe

Hi Manuel,
wonderful shot... different from your last, but very beautiful. The composition is good and the colours also. I like the person on B/W background. So nice!
Have a nice day,
Tomi

Rossignol (2289) 2006-08-29 16:45

Hi Manuel
Congratulations on your first year on TE - your gallery shows strength and variety. I like the bold simplicity of this shot, with the colour of the guy and the palms against the old fashioned black and white scene.

Olá amigo Manuel,
Primeiro que tudo parabéns pelo 1º aniversário do TE....e espero ver-te por cá por muitos mais anos...a ti e às tuas fotos claro ;-)
Depois acho que fizeste muito bem em nos apresentares um registo completamente diferente daquele a que nos habituaste.
Um primeiro retrato algo "tímido" mas que resultou numa composição muito bonita.
Especialmente devido ao fundo monocromático que realmente dá bastante ênfase ao rapaz que vai a caminhar.
Gostei muito.
Beijos
Teresa

sam224 (5851) 2006-08-30 4:11

Interesting composition here: I like the way the walking man is standing out well against the murales in the background. Good idea and realization.
Well done

jhm (83276) 2006-08-30 8:19

Oi, Manuel! Parabéns por esse ano de "exposição" aqui neste espaço onde interagimos e compartilhamos nossas percepções do mundo. A foto é bem interessante, de composição primorosa. Valeria a pena vc dizer um pouco sobre o painel em frente ao qual o retratado aparece. Abraço grande! Miguel.

vinicio (22428) 2006-08-30 11:13

Excellent composition Manuel, the B&W background proclaim well the subject, well done, compliments.
Ciao
Vinicio

feather (50122) 2006-08-30 11:17

Excellent and unusual choice of background for your first portrait as the B&W contrasts so well with the colour of the subject.
Congratulations on your anniversary!

Olá Manuel,
Interessante e bem conseguida esta aproximação! Gosto da sensação de movimento criada pelo posicionamento desta pessoa na imagem. O fundo alem de interessante ajuda a destacar a própria pessoa, conjuntamente com esta planta. Boas cores e definição.
Um abraço.
Paulo

Olá Manuel, parabéns por seu "aniversário" aqui no TE. E comemorou a data em bom estilo, ótima foto, bela ocmposição e bem definido! O fundo é uma pintura? Gostei da idéia das "pessoas" de fundo para um lado e o homem caminhando na posição oposta, mas mesmo assim avendo um equilibio.

Bom trabalho
Abraço
Andre

oochappan (22032) 2006-08-31 2:45

Hi Manuel
most remarkable faded background to place the person in aside with the sharp frontplan plant in the corner, an excellent finished photo to celebrate your first year here.
Congratulations
Henk

berek (29005) 2006-08-31 3:44

Hi Manuel
A great shot as a first portrait. Very nicely timed to as the figure is just about to leave the frame. I like the fact you have captured him with the palm leaves too. Good timing and nice exposure and colour. Congratulations on your first year. Keep up the good work.!!!

Congratulation for your first year on TE. I really like your first portrait of this guy. The background is really nice. Good capture, Nino

cjmm (4019) 2006-08-31 15:44

Olá prezado amigo,

Parabéns pelo aniversario Manuel!

La imagen que nos muestras es un tipo de foto que me gusta, esa contraposición de una persona caminando y las otras como si estuviesen en un mural, crean un efecto sumamente interesante.

También me gusta (aunque en esto hay divergencias) la composición con la persona "saliendo" de la imagen.

Muito bom trabalho!

Un abrazo amigo,
Carlos

markpanos (1944) 2006-08-31 19:42

En fin,.. Ah!!!! se me olvidava, creo que por fin se cumplira mi deseo de ir a Portugal este Trimestre,probablemente a Lisboa. Seras de los primeros en enterarte amigo...

MLINES (10948) 2006-09-01 2:50

Hi Manuel, Good to see this experiment which has worked well. The background gives this composition a lot of intrige. Congratultions on this milestone. Murray.

Gongrats for the first year in TE.

edal (6589) 2006-09-01 23:26

Hi, Manuel!
Congratulations with your 1-year jubilee! And congratulations for the remarkable photo, which can have still another name - e.g. "Walking my way".

Thanks that our paths on TE have crossed so that I can have the pleasure of learninng more of your marvelous works and of the places, that you've visited!
Anton

ben4321 (9807) 2006-09-02 6:15

I'm not usually a fan of these pictures of people walking in front of things that seem so popular on TE. The technique seems to be: find an eye catching poster, then wait for someone/anyone to walk in front of it.
I'm afraid it just doesn't do it for me.
Cheers,
Ben

CRATEOS (7274) 2006-09-02 14:48

Hi Manuel,
Great composition. He passed by without any contact with that nice poster in background.
Great shot

ChrisJ (70443) 2006-09-04 5:00

Hola manuel

I like the opposing directions of flow, & the contrast between the fg color & bg b&w. Good work & tfs!

riclopes (33131) 2006-09-04 5:16

Olá amigo Manuel, parabéns pelo 1º aniversário e excelente imagem para comemorar. O teu 1º retrato é muito bem conseguido, pricipalmente, devido ao fundo a preto e branco cheio de personagens. Gosto do contraste e da pose de movimento decidido.
Um abraço,
Ricardo
