Very strong and very well seen , Maciej
Its all most a anti man image “Crushed by women”
Amazing picture quality and well positioned of the man
I like it

Great shot, nothing to add to Ishai's critique. Except that I thought "eeeek, a man" instead of "crushing".

Image forte de notre société de consommation.
Cela me plaît beaucoup.
L'homme semble bien petit face à la feminité.
Merci pour le partage

Jest OK, nie za bardzo wprost, są przynajmniej dwa znaczenia, o ile nie trzy. Czystość formy w kształcie i kolorze ;-) Delikatna równowaga w kompozycji bez tej przesady i nachalnego hołdowania najprostszym zasadom, które się tutaj spotyka ;-)

Man in front of a big poster is a bit of a classic but this one has a nice twist with the possible crushing of the poor man under the giant womans heel. Everything works excellent together here, hardly any room for my usual "good advises".

this man better starts running . . ..
Maciej, what a great photo.
The lack of interest on the man's face, but for us the story is different.
Beautiful red, great theme and indeed a decisive moment.

Bonsoir Maciej,
Excellente cette vue !!!!! J'adore le contraste entre ces superbes jambes et cet homme a l'air un peu stressé!
Il fallait avoir le reflexe de shooter a cet instant, tout simplment Bravo !!!

Stunning!
I love this shot, marvellous how you cropped his feet and included the sexy women's ;-)
Absolutely first rate, filled with humour, you are dealing us a delicious punch--quickly travels to my Favourites...
Made my day!

Fantastic one.
reminds me of Henry Ho's.
Beware, you 're gonna turn into a professional advertisment photograph !

yep, I told you when I saw it on your LCD it was the best of the serie. Nothing to say, very good, what can you ask more?
In fact it's really working because of the look of the guy who appears to be very sure of himself, a little bit on the arrogant side. It's almost a pleasure to imagine he's going to have a surprise coming from miss Liz Hurley (this is an ad for Lancel, starring Hugh Grant's fiancée)... Perhaps for people who have seen that quite pleasant comedy "bedazzled" ("endiablé") with Liz Hurley, it makes even more sense...

Bonjour Maciej!
I was almost sure it was yours, your first Paris'pictures had the same "Joie de Vivre"...
I like the moment, it looks like the lady will smah him! :o)
And of course it seems technically perfect in my eyes, with especially a tremendous framing. A picture that can make everybody jaleous... ;o)))

Just wanted to add my two points. Fantastic perspective given in this shot! Too bad the man is not facing the legs though.

Look out!!! That guy is about to get stomped! :) Very cool. I always love bilbaord photos with people in them. Limitless possibilities with them. Nice job. JP

Brilliant impression of weightlessness, the mdel's legs more real than the man, or is it the other way around. Gulliver women and one sole liliput in asuit with a reen briefcase. War of the sexes, one can read so much into this extremely wity and well-judged pic.
Bravo!

This is very delightful, Maciej! I love how the man is walking amidst the landscape of urban signage--and he doesn't even know he is interacting with it! Very fun.

Amazing photo Maciej!!! You positioned the man on the photo so well, and it looks like any minute he will be crushed by the high heel. I like the dominance of red an black in the photo.
