[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
Our night in the Sahara was spent in a berber tent, with the two guides who took us through the many dunes. It was a very enjoyable night with everybody communicating through broken Spanish, English, French, Berber and Arabic.

Hemoso retrato, muy buena luz, es estupenda la composicion.
Felicitaciones

Fine exposure and composition with a great aperture without use of flash... I presume..

Hi Brendan
Wonderful warm colors for this picture.
I think it would be better to focus on the first man.
Anyway, I like very much the atmosphere in this berber tent
Very good work

Salaam Brendan,
A very nice indoors action photo with good and warm rendering, I like this diagonal of three elements, normally we use this for landscape or wider people views but I can see it works very well with close shots too, it draws the eye quite strongly to where the action is. Seems like you had fun that night !
Have a nice day JY

Hi Brendan,

Ah, that's a wonderful double portrait. It captures the atmosphere very well, though we don't see anything of the Berber tent I can so imagine where you are!

Greetings,
Dennis

Hi Brendan
The light is amazing here
This is a very beautifull picture with warm colors.
Nice atmosphere

Hi Brendan,
very successful shot even though not quite sharp in
right places, but that's a minor flaw really not even
worth mentioning.
What I praise here is the light and wonderful colours,
face expressions of the two guys, their immersing
into what it looks like writing some sort of a note or
something and a careful composition.
Wonder if the quality of this shot would be possible
without the fast 1.4 lens. What was the light source?
I really like this one - it's so atmospheric and it
makes me feel like I missed something very interesting
by not being there, although I'm quite happy to enjoy
what your recorded that night and decided to share with
us.
Cheers,
Robi

Dobar Dan Brendan,
Super colour contrast in the orange and blue attire and a gorgeous warm light, personally, i would have been interested to see a vertical aswell with a bit more of the orange turban.
Enjoy your travels through Europe.

Superb lighting! This sounds like a wonderful experience! Glad that you are sharing the moments with us. Thanks!

Hi Brendan,
Wonderful light. This could be a painting: the expression on the guides' faces, the coloured clothes. I agree with Robuik for the lack of sharpness here and there but still, it doesn't take much away from your picture. Well done.
Yours,
Philippe

What a great light you got there. Definitely an oriental ambiance. A bit like an oriental pianting. Very well done.

Hi Brendan,
Colourful double portrait. Warm and dim light creates friendly atmosphere. Blue and orange tones make good contrasts.

Belle photo de ces berbères, beau portrait bien réalisé avec beaucoupde netteté et de détails vestimentaire et ces visages de personnes bien attentives a ce qu' ils font.

Amitiés Thomas
