New theme? why not!, a photo from Rajasthan, West

Photographer's Note

this is probably my last post from Udaipur...a tailor attentively prepairing a saree or something like else.
the title is just to introduce a new theme from my travels: old fashoned-local-no global jobs.

see you soon and enjoy!

Ciao Silvio.
Mano ferma e grandangolo ti hanno permesso questo ritratto ambientato di grande atmosfera. La cura dell'artigiano è ben rappresentata nell'attenzione ai gesti piu' precisi.
Ciao.
Bobo.

Hi Silvio,
so there still are jobs where you don't need computer skills? I mean, wow, this guy doesn't even need electricity! You did a great job of catching the atmosphere. I like the colors and the simplicity.
Thanks,
Linda

Ciao Silvio, bella scena di vita quotidiana dalla lontana India, la macchina per cucire è quasi un pezzo da museo, mi ricorda quella che aveva mia madre, bella l'espressione concentrata dell'artigiano, ottima e nitida foto, bravo, ciao Silvio

Hello Silvio,
An interesting picture and a nice composition. There is a fine line of blue and red going diagonally across the photo. The white walls and floor make the picture very neat, in spite of all the things thrown on the floor. Good light and sharpness.
Regards,
Gert

E' ben esposta e contrastata!
Bravo!

Giorno Silvio....
è arrivato il progresso hai visto....la pedaliera di azionamento manuale è stata sostituita dal motorino elettrico...e la cinghia non ha la minima protezione!
A parte questo ho visto che la Nikon ha lavorato bene, contrastando e rendendo i colori alla perfezione, nonostante quella sorgente di luce quasi frontale (finestra).
Have a nice day...
Alex

Old machine, old tailor, old way of wrapping parcels to send abroad... Nice remembrances, always interesting to see people at work, good idea this theme !
TFS,
Cath.

Bella foto perchè discreta e rispettosa del lavoro umano.
Nessuna tentazione voyeristica del tipo "Come sono poveri...".
Ottimo lavoro
Renzo

Hello Silvio. A photo from the world of the work. I like these pictures, because they show old handicraft work in the modern world. It is instructive to watch this cutter. And me is well-known, most craftsmen work perfectly, cheaply and fast. As said: a beautiful and well composed photo. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Ciao Silvio,
Aufnahmen mit Handarbeiten und Handwerk faszinieren mich immer wieder. Gutes Licht und ihn mit seiner Arbeit gut aufgenommen in einer Diagonale.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf
