Hi, Peter.
A good one : The man, his epic of the hand and his smile introduce much dynamics here. Technically, maybe not perfect (light) but I like it like that.
Best wishes. Grazyna.

On the contrary Peter, I don't think you could have photographed it any better. The moment of capture is perfect. The high amount of noise (grain, as we used to call it) lends itself well to the subject matter. I like the crop, and of course his cute audience doesn't hurt. It almost reminds me of a Polonaise photo... almost ;-)
Great note too.
Regards,
Ryan

Hello Peter, I like the muted colours and the high contrast in the face of the speaker. I'm not so sure about the blur. Even though I like it as it is, I wonder if it hadn't been better to have the face of the mian character really sharp. The image illustrates well your note.

Excelente crítica do Ryan. A originalidade dos teus posts, põe-me a pensar...no uso de algumas funções do Photo Shop que nunca me passaria pela cabeça usar...e na questão das regras técnicas. Não sei se foi esse o caso, mas o momento é de facto bem apanhado. Olha-me para aquele esgar e mão aberta com os dedos todos tensionados. Até cresceu para aí um palmo do chão, se é que não está com os pés no ar...O cabelo ruivo e o sorriso loiro fazem bem o contra-ponto. Podia bem ser uma cena a passar na TV...

Impressive photo, no doubt. Fine, dynamic pose of a man. Splendid compo.

The moment is amazing, but the picture is oof! :)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Love the colors, the omnipresence of blacks, but above all the new age Socrates. One point for the photo, another for the note.

Yes, he's definitely a politician. His gesture is very expressive. The girl's smile also.
You managed to obtain a good result from a grainy and out of focus shot. It's expressive and colour rich.
Well done.

Im with Gal. I like the moment but not the oof. Theres a lot of good stuff here to be caprured sharply: his face, his hand, the girl looking at him.

Hello, Peter

What can I say? Nice colors, nice compo, nice contrast. I like it... but I miss something... maybe the speaker's face that should be more defined. But the moment is well captured.

Hi Peter,
Your note explain very well what we see in the moment you capured with your camera.I like the action of the "politician" and the blurry backround.Very original...

Wishes for the weekend,
Thomas

2 greenies today for this - self-made but still popular at least in his own surroundings - politician ... as we also have to vote today one politician (to me they are all the same, even one who only practices on his lady neighbours just yet, as this one here ...)

simply love the look on his face and the way he presents his convincing speech - i see a long and fruitful career in front of him ... don't mind the technicalities of the pic - it's just very suited for what i feel right now (anyhow, not a bit of admiration for his /politician/ kind as the ladies you're picturing here seem to have ...)

well seen, peter!
thanks,
dora

Although you haven't "photographed it right" as you say Peter, you have caught the moment which is far more important for me. As well as the young ladies ;)

Story told by pixels...
Messy ones...Disorganized one...Accidental ones...
Shoot with the speed of light, because the enthusiastic face of the excited orator won't last forever, will it ?
The faces speak…All of them.
The photo is done. The photo can be read.
Thanks Almighty on high!
-----------------------
Is it messy…?
Heck…It is…
So what? The merit is there, and the purpose of creating it…And the pure fun of looking at it.
And it evokes the smile on my face.
Thanks Almighty on high!

Thanks for that, Peter.
