Interlude, a photo from Jalisco, Pacific Coast

Photographer's Note

I played string bass at college so I couldn't strip away such a photo opportunity showcasing the interlude of a beach duet!

Hello Robert,
Not what I would expect to see on a beach, but they make a very nice change to the usual sun bathers. You timed this well and the colours are good. There is a touch of the 1950's or -60's in my opinion.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Robert,

Covid has everything shut down, but I see very regular excellent musicians in Bruges or Ghent, before corona.
It seems a cowboy duo with bass guitar and the good old accordion.
Them self I play no instrument.
Sharpness and clarity are superb.
Very well done, TFS.

Regards,
John

Bonjour Robert,
A good double portrait of the two musicians walking on the beach along the coastline, both carrying their instruments, a quite small one and a large one. Very pleasant sunlight as well.

C'est bien cadré, bien présenté ces musiciens, la lumière et la netteté sont parfaites, intéressante attitude avec ce pas, on a qu'une envie : les entendre jouer !

Hello Robert!
A good shot of this duo at the beach.Your low POV works well for the compostion, like the diagonal of the coastline. good depth too with the cruise ship abd buildings in the distance.
Regards,Ronny

Hello Robert,
Nicely taken those "Mariachi's" walk on the beach with their instruments. Wonder if they make a living when tourists nowadays less seen in the Mexican shores.
Bonjourne'e,
Ike

Hello Robert,

I have known street performers in many places but I can honestly say that I have never seen such a performance on the beach.
AS I musician, yourself, you must have been very attracted but, I think most of us would have grabbed an opportunity to photograph them!
There is just enough b/g for us to really understand the sense of place.

Have a good day,
Bev :-)
It's a fine, sharp close-up, the sort we love, where we can scrutinise the musicians without them responding!

A great musical duo, lovely capture, Robert. They look like they are really good. I hope you also got to hear them play!

Hello Robert,
The beach in Puerto Vallarta not only offers sunbathing and swimming, but also listening to local music.
I suppose that playing for tourists gives them extra money.
Good shot of daily life in perfect quality.
Best regards,
Zbigniew

Hello Robert,

Wishing I had seen more of Mexico. I've only been to Juarez opposite El Paso. The guitarist and accordion player steal the show here although the bg cruise ship tries hard to be the main focal point. Tfs!
