Pelourinho, Salvador Bahia

Beautiful Salvador with its colorfull historical center called Pelourinho ...
Walking through the city, searching for a nice spot to have a drink and relax ... and then in one of the side streets ... suddenly you are in the middle of a nice Brazilian concert ...
Aaaaaaahh Brazil and its lovely Bosa Nova...

What a beautiful shot! The guy is so concentrated on what he is playing that he looks very distant. I love your picture. It is very sharp and the colors are very nice. Congratulations and TFS.
Antonio

Hi An,
Nice close-up picture of a musician. I like the experssion of seriousness in his face. Greatly captured.

Hi An
ik ga voor de guitaar die gekend staat voor de prachtige muziek van hier. Een goeie DOF om hem uit de atmospherisch gekleurde achtergrond te lichten en goed in perpsectief om zoveel mogelijk de guitaat mee te nemen, dit is uitermate de beste hoek terwijl de guitarist zijn vingerzetting op de hals nauwlettend opvolgt.

Hi An
THe wonderful lines on this mans face and his concentration make this a great shot.
As well the contrast between his dark skin and his pure white shirt are wonderful.
nice cropping and composition.

Dag Anja,
Lange vingers, spelen zonder plectrum, de expressie in zijn gezicht....hij speelt uitsluitend op gevoel. Zijn vingers op de fretten, de kromming van zijn hand...een ware gitarist.
Een mooi geconcentreerde foto met de juist dof waarmee je alle aandacht op de gitarist legt.
Zijn muts....ja, onbetaalbaar. Maar het mooist vind ik nog het diep glanzend bruin van zijn gitaar, alsof hij hem speciaal nog even voor je gepoetst heeft.
Mooie foto...uit een mooie plaats.
Groetjes en fijn weekend, Henk

Impossible to understand Brazil without music. I like his concentration An, Itīs a photo full of respect toward the artist you are portraiting. I like the background as well, kind of colorist but not disturbing us for what is important here: A soulfull face.

Hi, An.
It's a nice photo, very expressive and great composition.
however, the correct name of this place is Pelourinho (with "E").

Regards

Paulo

An, Great shot! like Antonio says, he looks so concentrated on his guitar that it looks like he don't care about anything else, great colors, Perfect colors, great DOF, well done.

Hi An,
Wonderful colorful composition.
Wonderful expressive portrait, all in concentration.
Great colors, light and sharpness.
I like much the white clothes of the guitarist and his "hat".
I like the colored blurred background too.
TFS,
Corinne
