[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
Kathmandu
I have noticed how many of my Nepal pictures have old gentlemen lounging around. They are very much a feature of the place and groups of elderly men sitting around on street corners, passing the time of day are part of the culture. The older men seem to be able to show a lot of affection towards each other and they never seem to run out of things to say. Groups of chatting gentlemen people in the late afternoon streets and are part of the street scene and the place wouldn't be the same without them.

Hi Kevin!
It must be quite worth to go around and watch them. The scene is very well captured. Seems time have just stopped there, with no rush at all. Guess they were noticing your camera. Good composition with very good colours!

Hello kevin. The old men. That is a large social topic. No photographer ignores these men. One sees the men at roads and places, - usually together with other old persons. Frequently they drive the boredom out with a board game or card game. It takes hours, until they drank their coffee. Sometimes I ask myself, why they leave during the day the house. Your photo shows a typical situation. The men do nothing and drink nothing. Nearly one could have compassion with them. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Hello Kevin,
another beautiful composition of the daily life from Kathmandu!
good pov with nice colour and details on the place where spend their afternoon!
well done and TFS
cheers

Hello Kevin,
a typical scene in a lot of cultures and countries I think. I like those daily life captures a lot and here there are two things I like to have different. The first is the light it looks a bit harsh, it could also be the sharpness. And I am not so glad with the frontal view, not because of the missing depth, but the necessary cut of the top is very strong in my opinion, a bit more diagonal could change that. I think the cut of the door and the blue lines of the house care for that impression. But this could be my very personal view.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Bonjour, cher Kevin,
Voilà une très bonne photo nous présentant la vie quotidienne au Katmandu.
Coup de cœur pour la vie de rue présentée ici sans afféterie. La vraie vie.
Très bonne photographie.
Amitiés.
Philippe

hi Kevin

A fine portrait of the daily life scene on the street and the strong light brings nice contrast to the view. I like the element of 3 people here.

tfs, bill

helo Kevin
it was also the kind of scene that I liked very much when I was in Nepal,that makes the atmosphere so special,so nice!It was difficult for me to leave,because I was really in love with this atmosphere,and to find the european ambiance back!
In your photo,I like very much the men with their typical clothes and hats,and their place in the frame!The soft colours are superb!
Regards
Pascale

Hello Kevin! Wonderful scene. Very handsome men. Good POV. Perfect capture. Original picture. Well done!
