Hello Craig,

Outdoor barbers are unusual to us, in the west. I remember being similarly surprised in Pakistan!
This is an interesting shot, recording the different habits of other cultures. Maybe, if the weather was more reliably warm and dry, we would have more outdoor work places!
A nicely angled shot to catch the front and back of each person. Vibrant colours are obviously a choice, here, whilst in our country very neutral colours are more favoured.

Have a good day,
Bev :-)

Hi Craig, great composition with this interesting scene of everyday life, beautifully captured in this great photograph. An interesting image with good sharpness, light and color. Great job well done, congratulations my friend. Thanks for sharing this interesting work.

Good morning and happy weekend.
Warm greetings from southern Spain.

Bonjour Craig,

C'est une photo que j'apprιcie ιnormιment mais que je n'aurais pas osι prendre moi-mκme. Un portrait magnifique du barbier et de son client dans un environnement un peu moins aseptisι qu'en Amιrique du nord. J'aime les textures et les couleurs.

Amicalement

Serge

hi Craig
unique idea, and it works well, the mirror image is like a view into another world, as it reflects a background very different from what we see in the rest of the shot. Also, the colors are very cool, that vivid red and lush green are like a tv show teaching kids about color, the mirror in particular is really striking.
From the mens poses, you would never know that they were even aware of you. And now they are famous here on TE! The light is perfect too, lots of cool elements combined.
cheers
Noel

Hi Craig, I loved all outdoor barbers, shoe makers, tailors, we do not see them in Europe or USA. Nice reflections but there are also other fine details. Look at this yellow chair! In India you have plenty of such pphoto opportunities, it is why I love India so much.

Hi Craig,

Yes, indeed, outdoor barbers are not amongst the things we are used to seeing in the west. Not only that, but here in Britain it's very rare to see anyone being shaved in a barber's shop - most people visit the barber's just for a haircut.

A wonderfully colourful scene with lovely soft warm light and excellent details throughout. I love the pose of the two men - they actually both look a little grumpy here but I am pleased that they greeted you after you had taken their photograph and also seemed pleased that you'd taken the shot.

Excellent!

Kind Regards,

John.

P.S. Sorry I've been absent from TE for a little while - really must get catching up! :)

Hiya Craig

So you're a perfect street photographer, and it was worth! Right framing to include the vision of the barber and his customer in the mirror, nice contrasting colors (red vs green). Maybe the owner could sit and have his beard shaved!
Congratulations
CLODO

Hi Craig!
There are so many in India! I like this a lot, the colours and the composition with the reflections on the mirror. Perfect daily scene!

Hi Craig
Fine idea mixing the popular elements. The scene here is really well seen and captured. The barber's profile shown twice is cool. The colors are extraordinarily nice. The textures and the worn interior ...wonderful
Cracking shot!!
Cheers Frank

Hello Craig,
You captured another colorful shaving scene. :-) I do like the reflections, and I also like the colors and textures. That chair is very interesting, too. Here 's a question: did you get a street shave yourself, or was it too unhygienic? ;-)

Graal (103040) 2015-04-07 2:09

Hi Craig,
theme like from previous photo. Good idea and shot. Nice and a bit funny scene about the daily life. Well done photo.
Have a nice day.

Hello Craig,

Almost not to believe in 2015, I am very glad with the picture.
Real a daily life picture you choose an excellent position against the mirror.
Clarity and colours make your picture very nice.
Nice composition, nice presentation too.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

This one is a masterpiece and I'm adding it to my favs. Perfectly executed frame with a frame photo, brilliant composition and colours.
Have a nice day

Hi Craig,

It seems like you had a great trip to India. The only reason draw me to this country is Taj Mahal. So far I haven't see it from your posted pictures yet.

PS: The TE hasn't been fixed. This morning I have a difficulty for uploading.

Hello Craig
You performed an interesting essay on this basic exotic installation that warns me about the danger of getting shaved in the old style by an unknown barber!
In this case, even if I'm not a clansman, I would have asked to lower the mirror for a better close watch on the sharp blade!
Cheers.
Robert

Hello Craig,
I like very much the geometry and the quiet atmosphere of the setting and how the people challenge them with their interesting attitudes. It's a fascinating play of points of view and reflections, your note helped me realize that they are probably looking at you through the mirror, you're an invisible reflection in this composition:) Textures and colours are superb, they have a mild and consistent charm. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great weekend,
Ourania
