Photographer's Note
Citizens from Brasov, Romania, enjoy a peaceful late afternoon on a city bench, unconcerned by the giant billboard above their heads.

Hi Paul
What a unique one. I love the contrast thing in this photo. It could speak up more about many things. The giant one as a 'strange' thing could never possibly attract their concern. They are deeply sink in their own 'normal' thing. Nice moment. excellent POV.

Lafni

SIMPLY PERFECT! Not just the compo, but the message are also tough! I especially likt the contrast between the aggression of the poster and the seemingly peaceful chat of the people.
I can realize a kind of generation gap: these elder people seemingly do not take care of proliferation of the uproarious western-type culture of the youth, although it can destroy their silent peaceful world.
Many TFS, Jalab
PS.: I marked it as one of my favourites!

Hi Paul
Excellent shot ! You've got a great eye to see this funny scene and to bring it out in a perfect way. Your framing is really effective to accentuate the peaceful "skewer" (sorry I don't find another word o;) and the irascible guitarist. Clash of generations !
Lucky you to have such a great, great subject.
I will not wait until the end of the day to add this clever composition in my theme Photo of the day !.
Congrats.
Regards
Karine
PS : I'll just try a WS to make the red more aggressive, with more impact. Just for fun ;o)

Dag Paul,
Leuk effect, deze trompe-l'oeil - het gebaar van de dame rechts lijkt te suggereren dat ze toch ergens iets gewaar wordt. Grappig!
Ook de WS van KLB vind ik een prachtjob.

Hallo Paul,
Ha, dit is leuk. Ook ik keek hier eerst even vreemd tegenaan, maar hoe dit is opgezet is zeer fraai. Lijkt wel alsof de mensen geen weet hebben van wat er zich boven hun afspeelt. Die Fender Stratocaster ligt in duigen, maar zal de mensen daaronder niet boeien.
Verrassende foto, goed gezien en prima gekaderd.
Groet,
Henk

Hello Paul,
This one is a great composition!
You perfectly combined this dynamic and impressive poster, with the tranquilitiy of these persons, quietly enjoying a spring afternoon.
Very well done!

Bonjour Paul
Stunning street scene, you have wisely captured this scene. the generation of people sitting peacefully makes this image more interesting.
It might get a clear image when touching the lens to the window pane tightly. Still definitely a successful shot.

Hello Paul,
A very good photo playing on the difference of size to generate a fun effect. In this way, the composition putting the people just on the bottom of the frame was perfect.

Hi Paul!
I know, it's only rock and roll, but I like it! Do You like The Rolling Stones?

Hi Paul,
Just as in reality living dangerously that is. The content found in this picture narrates based on the object and action beside the scene.
I like the 'design' of it all, the concept, the action and emotion is strong and it speaks to itself!

That is a really giant billboard, also bit humorous with the image that shows and goes well with your title.

Hi Paul,
Hehe, I love this pic! Brought a smile to my face with the contrast of the older folk with the guitar smash of youthful exhuberance. It is almost like a statementby the young to the old and the older folk are oblivious to the visual noise. Great fun.

Bonjour Paul,
L'effet est saisissant !
J'aime le contraste entre l'attitude toute tranquille des personnes et cette immense guitare qui vient se briser au dessus d'elles.
Excellent !
Amicalement

That's a clever picture, Paul ...
Hmm ... I'm thinking about cutting off the top part of
the photo, at the height of the sneaker (just under it)
Good for you
