lapis philosophorum, a photo from Malopolskie, East

Photographer's Note

Latin: lapis philosophorum - English: The philosopher's stone. The kids allways are running - not they - they are sitting and thinking and observing - on the rock - despite the sun - it's rare and unusual - very interesting - for me

Hello Elzbieta,
This is a very attractive composition. The children wear eye-catching colours and are well placed, facing different directions. The light is superb and the dark green, blurred background is perfect.
Regards,
Gert

Elzbieta
Foto "cinematografica .
Sole nei capelli che aumenta il volume e la ..luce .
Ottima gestione di visi e delle espressioni .
Le rotazioni asincrone e le attenzioni danno piacevole movimento.

Hi Elzbieta!
A beautiful double portrait indeed! Lovely backlit hair and faces and a whimsical introverted expression on both of the children. The emerald green background is gorgeous. Perfect focus. I liked your notes too. Fine work, warm regards,
Steve

Czesc,
zabawny ten kamien filozoficzny. Lubie tak oswietlone wlosy, jakby slonce je kapalo. Interesujacy eksperyment i fajne portrety. Moze troche gory przyciac warto by bylo.
Milego dnia.

Hello Elzbieta - What a lovely double-portrait shot where both children are involved with their own thoughts. Your use of DOF is perfect isolating the children and providing a soft green BG. The light is gorgeous; I love the highlights provided by the back-light and your composition and sharpness are both excellent. A shot to be proud of. Best regards Rosemary

witaj,

bardzo fajny tytuł i ciekawa obserwacja. Nietypowe dzieciaki. Nie biegają, a siedzą na kamieniu filozoficznym. A może po prostu sie zmećzły marszem żółtym szlakiem i odpoczywają. Przyjemna scenka, świetnie pokazana. Ostrość, głębia i kolory idealne. Super światło. Ciekawe, co ten chlopak ogląda z takim zainteresowaniem.

Pozdrawiam

Małgośka

Hi EB,

Yes, Kids are full of energy and non stop action, it is nice to see them actually sit down and think, not play video game or texting if you know what I mean. Beautiful shot, lovely colors of reds and blue, richtone, also nice reflecting light on the blond hair.

Ciao Elzbieta,
congratulazione per il titolo azzeccato "la pietra filosofale", ma sopratutto per uno scatto perfettamente chiaro e nitido con una gestione superba della luce laterale che illumina con efficacia tutto il profilo del ragazzo.
Molto brava!
Buona serata e buon weekend
Mario

Hello Elzbieta,

What a wonderful portrait of childhood.

I like the lower position, because that emphasizes and
enlarge the children extra.
Also the light management and light management are great....
Great work.

Friendly regards,
Robert
