miodzio,
poczynając od tytulu, poprzez "rajtki" kolesia, po "naiwne" kadrowanie na wprost,
no po prostu wszystko tutaj "świeci"

He is dressed half in traditional way and half modern, I see.
Did you capture him whil he were getting up? He is in a strange attitude, like if he were sitting but without a chair.
A good capture, TFS

Hi Nygus,

Another unbelievable image from your real life adventure,that makes me want to change my name... He seems to be seated on nothing! Is he an acrobat or is it a visual hallucination?

The yellow color dominant blends perfectly with ocre and brownish elements. Rich textures and excellent use of low angle point of view. I like the intensity in his look and tribal painting with a basketball shirt. Very impressive shot!

Best regards!

Hey Swiatek,

Great shot with an informative note. I like the overall warm tone of the picture, although I'd like to see more of his face.. I guess he is naturally pretty dark and that might have been hard to accomplish. That's the only thing I think that could be improved upon in the picture, although I'm not sure if it could have been done without making the rest of the image lighter I guess.

Thanks for sharing,

Jas

Hello Swiatek,
Excelent capture of the colourful tribesman, nic contrast with the yellowish background. I thinka closer frame would look even better. I shall be there in two months!!
Regards

That's weird for the sitting stool is not visible. I thought at first you had removed a chair he was sitting on but in fact, it's a very portable stool !

Nice colors and the lower and upper parts of the picture are beautifully blurred and dark.
