I must be honest here, I don't know who this man is and I wish there was more of a note to tell us :) BUT it is a really interesting portrait. His expression is very sad! He looks like a man that has had a very hard life. A very nice capture. TFS and have a great day!

merci de nous faire conna顃r ton grand p鑢e.

bon w.e

Dobar Dan Branko,
This is one of your best photos I think.
For me "nostalgia" is everything and I liked every detail of this photo: The oil lamp hanging in the wall, the old iron working with coal,the B&W photos on the wall. Wish to know and see the details of the paper half under the family photos. Maybe it is the first money Radisava Velikog earned or an important document he owns, I am not sure.
The expression in his eyes are impressive.
Congratulations for the "(TR)B鼀黭 Radisavın Portresi"

Mnogo Pozdrav!

Vraiment un superbe portrait de ton grand-p鑢e Radisav le grand...閙ouvant. Son regard incroyable, tous les d閠ails de sa vie quotidienne qui l'entourent. Une photographie forte. Tous mes compliments !
(je crois qu'elle serait mise mieux en valeur dans un cadre tout simple...).

Amicalement

Hello Branko,
Very bold portrait! This harsh directly lighting by flash seems to have succeeded in making his great expression a marvelous portrait.
I really like this shot.
Have a nice weekend, Hisashi

ciao Branko,

I like the details of this pic. the old fashoned iron...the sephia photos, the puzzled and sad expression of your grandfather.

Bonjour Vasa,
Tu as un sens de l'humour certain. Pris en 1980, Cet int閞ieur de maison, et la vieille personne me rappelle ce que j'ai vu dans les campagnes fran鏰ises et que l'on peut encore voir de temps en temps. Bonne image prise fort � propos.
Bonne journ閑

Zdravo, zdravo.

Nekaj časa mi modem ni deloval, pa vidim da si bil precej aktiven.

Perfektna scena. Kot je bakyy dejal, super atmosfera, milijon zanimivih detajlov, naraven "setting", plus 歟 mnogo več. Vidim da je skenirana slika.
Vidim tudi kateri datum je, je njegova 瀉lost na obrazu (ali pa samo brezvoljnost) povezana s tem dogodkom? Oz. tistim dva dni prej? Ali je to samo naključje.

Lep pozdrav.

Branko,
Very interesting portrait here, friend. The home details in the composition are also very interesting.

Well done.

Superbe, cette photo scann閑 !!! J'esp鑢e que tu en as encore d'autres pareilles petites "antiquit閟" � nous faire admirer !!!

J'adore le portrait, vraiment forte son expression un peu nostalgique, aussi le cadrage et tout ce qui l'entoure avec son fer � repasser, mais seulement une chose...

... vraiment, je regrette l'absence de note car tu ne fais qu'y r閜閠er le titre sans nous expliquer qui 閠ait ce grand homme alors qu'avant tu nous r間alais avec des textes pleins d'humour, d'ironie et toujours 閠onnants, souvent en 3 langues ce qui devrait 阾re suffisant !!! Ces belles notes 閠aient souvent des chefs d'oeuvre et elles me manquent maintenant...

Je reviendrai ce soir,
"Grandes amiti閟",

Zdravo Branko. Vrlo mila slika. Izgleda covjek sa mekim srcem, i ako je zivio u to doba kad njegova rjec je bila zakon.I vidi se takodjer da zivot je bio tezak. Moja baka je rodila dvanaest a samo moj otac je ostao ziv da uzdigne svoju porodicu.Ponosni i pobozni su to bili ljudi, malo su govorili a duboko osjecali. Danas puno govorimo, a malo osjecamo. A i jos i manje vjerujemo u icemu. Pozdrav prijatelju. Klaudio.

Hello Branko,
this portrait is very nice. An old man in his accustomed ambience placed to the left side while balanced with the iron on the right - excellent! (Not to mention the eyes!)
Congratulations!

Ciao caro amico,
really a great portrait! In these shiny eyes and in these hands there is a whole life, probably of hard job. This photo has been captured in 1980 and this person, probably, there is not more, but this magnetic look will live forever in your image. Stupendous work, I like a lot.
Un saluto affettuoso
Paolo

Howdy Vasa!
Very interesting man, interesting scene. Good POV and capture. Very good portrait.

Bonjour Branko.
Cet homme dans un d閏or d'un autre si鑓le semble nous interpeler sur la vie que nous menons actuellement.
La composition est simple mais semble bien calcul閑.
Amicalement

Hello Branko,
the portrait looks really great! an "old-fashioned" one, but so impressive. It could be taken in some Russian village which is very far from the centre - from Moscow.
I wonder what he is thinking about.......
My very best wishes!
Elena

ghilain (1714) 2009-05-30 8:07

Bonjour Branko,

Que d'atmosph鑢e dans cette photo. Bien sur, il y a l'homme, le vieil homme, le bel homme et puis, il y a le "d閏or" : la canne, le d閠ail de la nappe, la lampe et les vieilles photos.

Bravo pour ce rendu, pour cette 閙otion.
amiti�

Bonjour Branko le grand
bravo pour ce portrait en situation, on se croirait en 1950. J'aime bien tous les ustensiles et les photos accroch閑s au mur, en plus de la pose. Le grain de la photo ajoute � la nostalgie.

Hi Branko

As you looked at my first TE post I felt I should to the same. Thanks for the critique on my Mumbai shot. What an interesting portait! Even I do not know the man, but he looks very concentrated to the camera. The lightening is a bit dark but using more flash power may not help either. Perhaps I would try a second flash or bouncing, but the result is not sure. Doing such shots you cannot try all the options, because then the moment is gone. Overall I like the shot. It's a good start in TE, congrats.

Best regards
Urs

maloutim (13617) 2013-04-15 0:48

C'est marrant , on dirait un mus閑 et le vieil homme en fait partie. Ses yeux sont hagards et fatigu閟. Ils traduisent le regard vers le pass�.
R閍lisation empreinte de nostalgie.
Merci du partage.
Amiti閟.
Marie-louise.
PS Je viens de lire que c'est un hommage � ton grand-p鑢e, et je suis contente qu'il revive ainsi dans tes photos. Le mien lui ressemblait.

Dobar dan.
Odlazi jos jedam dobar umetnik sa lepim fotografijama i dobrim kritikama ...
Fotografija nasih starih koji su mnogo prosli i propatili, ratovali i ginuli, ostaju nam fotografije i secanja.
Lep portret starine.
Sve najbolje u daljem radu i zivotu sa dobrim zdravljem.
Paja.

Hello Branko,
The portrait of Radisava Velikog (is he the Dragonslayer?) And in the foreground is the reality
For me a very sad picture, you see a lot of poverty!
Nice to see you

Best wishes
