School-uniform QUIZ, a photo from Kent, England

Photographer's Note

School-uniform Quiz

On this picture of a shop-window in Ramsgate-Kent-England you can see 7 different school-uniforms with the logo of the school.

Who can find all the right names of the schools?

I give you one:

I wouldn't know where to start to identify the schools. The girl's green uniform looks as if it's from a private school; maybe they all are. They look a lot smarter than they will be when worn! Well spotted

Hi Rob,

In Brazil, the school uniforms are increasingly rare. The most beautiful uniforms are those of military colleges. The image is very interesting, colorful. Good reflections too.

Greetings

Dag Rob,

Ik ken de Engelse emblemen niet of toch niet allemaal, maar dit is niet echtvan belang vermoed ik
Maar ik ben al jaar en dag voorstander van school uniforms omdat dit de ongelijkheid en de merken oorlog doet verdwijnen
Zeer mooi neer voorgebracht en met prachtige kleuren
Mooi foto werk Bedankt

Groeten,
John

A very original topic, very colorfull, and a well documented note. For Clarendo school, I would have chosen the green girl uniform, but probably because this is the most lively of the 7!

All the best,

Emmanuel

Olá Rob,

this is very your style. I like the play with the colors and shapes and how the reflection works as a second layer. Very good work!
Regards,
Carlos

Hi Rob,

Splendid ad very colourful scene. I really like the inclusion of the red pole (2) That makes the scene even more vivid. I believe most photographer would consider it a problem. You have make the other way round taken advantage of it. Really well done. TFS and have nice evening!

Cheers,

Ulf

Hello Rob,

Very good and incisive note, complementing a colorful image. I could not have passed your test identifying the school, despite your clues. The vertical red stripe adds a very good touch of color. A long ago I had posted and image an indeed, you had "stripes" critiqued it. It is in the same genre, but with celebrating a different aspect.

Warm regards,

Bulent

Thats bright and brilliant Rob. Nicely composed and superbly observed. Sitting in India i wouldnt even try a guess about the school names but would surely settle for the fine photographic quality of this splendid composition

Dag Rob,
Very well seen and captured. Those uniforms are like stylised human figures and they compose an interesting visual arrangement. The red column in front of the only female uniform makes me wonder if there is any hidden message there. :-) I also like the humorous detail of the logo on the lower right that looks like a rat.
Groet,
José
