Photographer’s Note

This old Jaguar was parked outside a japanese traditional hotel, where traditional clients have a tradition of having big bucks, yen-bucks that is...

Me, I was just passing by.

Because the car was half-way under a carport, the light almost look like coming from a studio softbox.

Hello André,

An old Jaguar out of the years 60 I think.
Very well maintenance, this was always a specially car under tyhe cars.
Very nice for look at.
Nice composition and presentation, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Hello Andre,
She is one beautiful lady (curves and all).
This is a very artistic composition.
Focus perfect. Great sharp colours.
Love the extreme tight framing.
Overall, Mint Slice - Very Nice.
Kind regards,
Graham.

Bonjour André,

C est vrai que le rendu semble etre celui d un poster de publicité avec un eclairage soigné en studio. C est joliment modulé. J aime bien la disparition progressive de l arriere plan dans l ombre, le choix d exposition etait bon.
Tu etais haut en iso? Je suppose avec une vitesse de 1/320 at f/5.6, le bruit n est pas visible sur ce post (du moins sur la taille TE).
Tu as une vue plus large montrant la femme fatale en robe rouge en train de monter dans cette voiture :-)

Yves.

Bonjour André
Jolies courbes des véhicules d'antan. Enfin ce n'est pas si vieux. J'aime beaucoup le cadrage vertical mettant en valeur la calandre et son projecteur. Le grain e la photo, malgré la petite taille du post, est impeccable.
Cordialement.

Hello André,

Il me semble bien avoir vu la même voiture mais en état de décomposition avancé dans le cimetière de voiture de Kaufdorf, près de Berne. Il devait même y en avoir plusieurs. Je fouillerai dans mes archives pour retrouver ce modèle plein de rouille.
Par contre ta Jaguar semble rutilante et la composition avec cette diagonale "phare - insigne" rend hommage à cette vieille carrosserie.
A+

Cette photo semble réellement avoir été faite en studio. Très beau cadrage et magnifique utilisation de la lumière. Du grand art!

Hi André
the administrators are going to remove that splendid picture which is not in the mood of TE! I like your focus on the front car light, and the colours you get.
best regards

Salut André
Et je croyais que tous les japonais avaient des voitures japonaises, lol. Celle-ci a beaucoup de classes, grâce à sa forme et couleur. J'aime beaucoup ton cadrage soigné. Belle nettété et joli bokeh (voilà quelque chose de japonais).
Bonne soirée
Nikki

Salut André,
oui en effet c'est la lumière incroyable qui m'a attiré sur cette photo...Douce, feutrée...elle met particulièrement bien en valeur le véhicule....on dirait effectivement du boulot de studio.

Hi Andre,

I see a real good photography sense and technique in this photo. A great play with the light/shadow and the design of the car. It looks an studio photo. Excellent!
Regards,
Carlos

Ooooh, Shiny!
Well observed POV and composition. Graphically this can take up a whole page on a magazine with tiny little text as th commercail for vintage cars. Love the colors. I think I'm gonna paint my room this colors :) rich, cool, very soothing and calm, easy on the eyes. Okay a little off track there. Back to the subject. Nice shallow DoF help us forcusing on the "Headlight" Hehe. Okay off track again. Oh what the heck, just really good shot and artistic presentation.

Hello again Andre

This is one of my favorite shots you've taken. There is something sensual about this shot...perhaps its the curves, the lines, the shapes?
And you're right, funny how it looks as if you took it in a studio due to the black at the top of the photo.

It takes a creative eye to see such things in life, you certainly have it.

Great shot...
I'm hoping you have more of these types to show in the future.
very good clarity as well.

thanks again
Craig

Namaste Andre
Curves of a different type my friend...excellent framing & focus just on the headlight of the gleaming Jag...very different, (inanimate objects do not find much place in your gallery...this is an exception, but there maybe people who would take exception about the 'inanimate' part :-)), very arty!
Best Regards
Angshu

Muy buena galería de imagenes con máxima calidad y eleganáncia como ésta...saludos

rford (159) 2009-11-03 11:11

Sweet, it really is about light and form... it is delicate yet provocative. Would love to see more of this side of your work, much more captivating to me than so-called straight periodical photography.
