hello MAlgorzata

I lost 12-13 critiques, & all of the more recent critiques I received, but not the image I posted yesterday, so some folks were affected even worse than me. Smart choice of a vertical frame here with good sharpness & punchy light contrasts. Excellent graphism & colour. Well composed with the diagonal perspective starting in the bottom right corner. Tfs!

Hello Malgorzata - Not sure if I can recreate my critique word-for-word ... The clothing, particularly the man's hat and the red cummerbunds look so elegant. The street with it's crisp white building with lovely wrought iron details is the perfect location for such an elegant pair of riders. A fine shot. Wram regards Rosemary
PS. Please don't fall down again server!

Ces deux cavaliers "meublent" de très belle façon cette jolie rue aux maisons blanches; Bonne et intéressante composition.

The two riders gave a dynamic scale to the calm place in picture, Malgorzata.
The man wearing his traditional suit and hat, leading through the "white-village" as it known in Andalucia, and most toured on.
Fine details on the typical house in picture.
Enjoy your friday,
Ike

Cette image est typique de l'Andalousie. Les cavaliers superbement vêtus se détachent parfaitement du blanc des murs. Un cadrage vertical qui offre une belle ampleur .

The rider in the foreground is dressed as a gaucho from the Pampas in Argentina. It's an unusual, well timed, and and well exposed shot.

josepmarin (59385) 2012-02-11 3:49

Hi Malgorzata,
a typically Andalusian scene, because of the traditional white architecture, with its balconies, gratings and lampposts, the fantastic luminosity, and both riders riding along the street.
It is a beautiful photo, with a great technical execution.
Friendly regards,
Josep

Hi M,
Good timing with these horses in this steet, good light management with these strong contrast, tfs.

siolaw (38294) 2012-03-07 22:00

Hi Malgorzata
The framing is excellent and provides great context to the scene.
The sunlight hits exactly where you need it and the whites are perfectly exposed, giving texture to the whitewashed walls.
