[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
Before the nightfalls, the place to be in Shibam is the hill facing the old town, to enjoy the delicate variations of the light on the city walls, which can provide spectacular pictures to photographers.

But it was too late to climb up to this point, and I thought I would better concentrate my attention on the life's scenes around me.

Hussein, that I had hassled with the sunset in Shibam, could hardly understand that I was so pointedly ignoring the city and focusing my attention on... nothing!

His face was reflecting incomprehension....
"What do you take? "

Wait a minute, my friend... You'll see...

Hi Marine,
This is a great photo...
I like the half black and half yellowish colors a lot.
Sillhouettes of people in the field are so successful in illuminating the everyday life scene. Some playing with a ball, I can see web maybe for volleyball or something like that, some are just sitting on the ground maybe watching or just chit chating...
The dusty and foggy view of field seems amazing.
Congrats,
Burcu

hello Marine,

very special photo, the dust, the colours and the compo, it is very nice !!!
greetings, inn

nice compposition, i love the idea, very candid moment, you've captured it very well, but hope you fixed the framing, anyway, the color itself is beautiful, what i really liked is the shadows, nice leveling and opacity... well done!! TFS

Hello Marine,
watching just shadows - it reminds me of the Plato's allegory of the cave. Brilliant capture with strong effect.
Best regards
Romana

You were lucky you go there too late (all those doors, I suppose, right?) You definitely got the more spectacular photo, Marine. Truly outstanding. Best, -Hugh

HI MARINE,
A magical atmosphere, very good composition.

Hi Marine,

This is what i call an artistic pose, i am asking my self, did you arrange all these people to pose that way, ofcourse no, I really admire it. I focused more on the subject rather than the lights and colors because every one in the picture seems to be acting which made the picture more valuable. This is a top class photo.

salut marine,
this is an example of a photo showing that the author was in a right place in a right moment...
being man times arabic countries i think i may say how important is that football exercising thing to the locals... in sand or dust, in an evening time when the temperature outside does not hurt any more - the kids go out and enjoy the most popular sport in the world...
you portrayed the mood of the moment very well...
best wishes, j.

Bonsoir Marine,

"What do you take? "

Tout d'abord cette photo est belle et j'aurai bien aimé la réaliser.
Ensuite je comprends ce que tu me disais cet après midi : et bien tu as eu raison de tourner le dos à Shibam pour photographier la vraie vie qui est autour.
Je te propose en WS un format panoramique
Bon retour
Amicalement
Marc

Bonjour Marine,
Superbe scène de vie, bien vu et très bien réalisée. Quel fourmillement de vie ! Tout en suggestion... Avec le cadrage de Marc, c'est parfait ! ;)
Bonne journée,
Marion

Salut Marine,
intéressant résultat avec une difficle lumière a capturée, bel effet avec ces silhouettes et cette tonalité dorée, peut être qu'un format plus panoramique serait pas mal et éviterai cette très grande masse sombre au bas de l'image.

bonjour marine
excelllente lumiere et excellente atmosphere, les silhouettes nombreuses on un effet remarquable dans cette lumiere dorée chargée de particules de poussiere.

Bonsoir Marine,
Elle est magnifique cette photo, toute en ombres chinoises avec ces plans successifs alternant, personnages (et ballon!), palmiers, montagnes.
Je la mets dans mes favorites même si (comme Marc l'a fait) j'aurais coupé un peu du bas et peut-être aussi le ciel.
Pour le reste, je la trouve merveilleuse de vie, de lumière... c'est pour moi une sorte de BD et je me plais à rêver à chaque personnage et à sa vie. Moi aussi, c'est une photo que j'aurais aimé faire, et cela m'aurait vraiment rendue heureuse.
Un très grand bravo!
Bise
Diane

Salut Marine,

J'ai loupé cette merveille !!! Superbes toutes ces silhouettes, j'aime beaucoup ! J'aurais peut-être redressé l'image, et ôté du ciel blanc en haut.
Bien rentrée ?
Bises
Marie

Your picture is amazing
The light is sublime in these golden tones
Simply wonderful taken

Fantastica foto complimenti

Bonjour Marine,
Le titre est bien choisi. J'aime toutes ces silhouettes de densité différente qui donnent beaucoup de profondeur à l'image. De plus elles ne sont pas statiques mais en plein mouvement. Le ballon a été figé à un bon endroit de l'image. Selon mon goût, l'avant plan très sombre pourrait être recoupé pour en faire une panoramique.
Bien à toi,
France

I like very much the contrast between the black-orange scale colours in the backround and the moving shapes on the foreground. this picture gives a sense of heat and movement!

Quelle belle image Marine,
Ce qui est remarquable sur cette image c'est les strates de couleurs brunes et beiges qui se superposent. C'est magique et très graphique comme atmosphere !
Bravo.

Merci au passage pour ta réponse à ma question relative aux arbres de Lisbonne.

Marine,

Your picture is really encouraging.
Gooid shot..

Salut Marine,

Hi Marine,
This is absolutely a shadow theater, or let's say, dream theater, and you were the master of puppets to capture all those dreamy puppets in magic light and dust. The black half bottom is just an unorthodox, namely, daring attempt. Congrats,
Deniz

Hi Marine,
Nice shot, I like how the ball nesteles perfectly in between the palm trees. If I were you, I would use an unconventional crop here, and cut most of the black empty space and a little bit of the burnt out sky.
It a nice multy layered shot with this golden light!
Nicolas

very unique composition and i like the graduation in rows of the shadowed figures as if they were shadow cut-outs on a stage.

great...

A masterpiece! The texture is unique!!

Bonsoir Marine
le bas de l'image est peu être un peu trop important. mais la lumière est tellement magnifique !
Superbe
Bertrand

Hi Marine - certainly a very attractive photo, in beautiful foggy light - and many attractive silhouettes... regards, Daniel

Really nice atmosphere in this one!

Hi Marine,

what a great image! Extraordinary multiple layers. Good moment capture with all the "players" seeming to be moved by a coreography.

Very well done!

Gio

Hello marine,
what a unique shot. Real shadow play with sihoutted people giving a good challenge to the eyes, scrutinizing the actions Great thought and the soft colours give a good impact too. I like looking at each person and guessing their action. But for sure some are playing football.
Great shot.

regards,
Foozi
