Photographer's Note

Walking through the streets of Trastevere, is easy to encounter these situations, outside restaurants musicians who play outdoors, or in the alleys of the old town

Hello Valter,

A great street performer portrait. Perfectly picked and rendered in B&W. I like the content and proud expression of the man. He strongly resembles Alfred Hitchcock though. Thank you my friend. Have a nice day.

nei ritratti esce fuori tutta la tua qualità di fotografo, ottima anche la scelta del BN...oh ma sembra Hitchcock!!
Buona giornata

Hello Valter
I like the B/W treatment, which seems very appropriate for documentary street photography. But it's the accordionist's expression that makes this photograph special. He certainly looks confident, almost superior: I'll bet you didn't get away without putting some money in his pot!
Regards
Will

Hello Valter,

Your B&W images are as good as your colored ones. A nice portrait of this accordionist who shows off his talent. He looks very confident and happy to have this talent. I like the sharp details .

Ciao Valter,

What a super portrait! You have captured this accordion player very well indeed but I find his expression a little strange. Was he happy for you to photograph him? I can't make my mind up if he is smiling or if he wants to punch you!

Good eye contact, excellent tones and contrasts and perfect exposure and sharpness. It looks good in black and white too.

Was he any good as a musician?

Lovely!

Kind Regards,

John.

Caro Valter

Accidenti che foto. L'adoro! Adoro il signor e adoro il bianconero. Potrebbe una foto di 50 anni fa: totalemente senza tempo. Il contrasto, i toni neri e bianchi sono perfetti. Ottimo anche il taglio cubato. E che sguardo hai catturato, ancora una volta. Complimenti, la foto mi fara' sorridere tutto il giorno.

Un abbraccio
Lisuzza

Ciao Walter
Buone ritratti in bianco e nero della fisarmonica. Personale gentile e un'eccellente risoluzione.
Del giocatore si renderà conto che il fotografo ha stabilito un buon rapporto.
Con riferimento.

Hi Valter
This reminds me of the old musicians’ joke that the only true gentleman is the accordionist who keeps his instrument in its case! A rather serious looking street entertainer this gentleman it seems, and what a great character!, something you can see in the lines of his face and this opens up the possibilities of many interpretations. But he looks a real performer to me the look on his determined face says that his heart and soul are in it and the contrast is effectively stronger lots more punch, which this character deserves This is not only a lovely capture of communication and energy but an impressive and expressive image too. Well done. Play it again Sam!
Hv a great WE
Warm regards

Ciao caro Valter,
un'altra piacevole dimostrazione che le foto "rubate" in strada sono le più spontanee e naturali, le più vere e interessanti. Spesso sono scatti irripetibili, per cui bisogna cogliere l'attimo o l'espressione giusta solo in quel preciso momento, come hai fatto tu in questo fantastico bianco/nero. Bravissimo!
Ciao, buon venerdì!
Paolo

Hi Valter!
This is surely a very good b&w portrait! His proud pose looking at your camera is just great! Generally people don't enjoy cameras that much in western countries:)!
I also like the background, with the flower and the door.
