Ola' Francisco,
Your well-framed compo has excellent light and color. Your note is an interesting observation; I think it's more true around the military, which was much of your experience. I've always thought it takes a LOT of denial of reality to put yourself in a place where you let people shoot at you.
Regards, pat

The guy must be right, you caught him at a quick shutter speed ;)
I like your note and Pat's critique. Regarding the pic, I like the colors a lot, but I'd prefer you to have turn your POV a bit to the left, ie, get rid of the white shirt and including the lady on the left.
Abraço,
Beijo

I like your note, which can only been savoured after discovering the picture and the back of that T-shirt.

Beijo is probably right, you could have tried getting the lady on the left rather than the shoulder on the right, but what was important was the text and you got it right.

All the best,

Emmanuel

Humorística, sem dúvida. Estes gajos têm que estar a gozar para fazerem uma t'shirt destas :))) Bem apanhado, Francisco. Sem dúvida, os Senhores do mundo, ou mesmo do Universo, se for caso disso.

Olá Francisco,
cada que ache o que quizer né, hehe, a nós so resta rir, mas pelo menos o sujeito tem bom gosto pra fotografias. Gostei do comentário do Ricardo.
Parabéns e Abraço
