Description
The graveyard shiftA 80 year old man in a cemetery, gathering the hay he had cut some while back, so he’ll have something to feed the animals during winter time… It struck me quite hard to see him in that posture … a man this old without a patch of land he can freely work… But this is the world we live in …
Hope you like it. Feedbacks are welcome , either good of bad

lovely encounter !
(maybe a tiny bit too sharp, IMHO... but really great, splendid model !)

Yeah.. I am starting to think it's a bit too sharp , but back in that day I had a different way of sharpening and seeing a sharp image.
Indeed it was a lovely encounter. I can still see the old man in my head whenever I want to. He's quite the marking character
Thank you for your feedback

adica? ce sa fie de bine? ca nu s-a schimbat nimic? din partea mea, satul ala dintre dealuri (langa Barlad) poate sa ramana asa...oricum nu-i nimic nou in el...poate ca din cauza asta imi si place atat de mult

The story is true, I had a small chat with the man .Lots of pictures speak for themselves but in some cases it's good to tell it's story... It makes it more than pointing an shooting.

Exactly! That's what I'm trying to do also.
There are times that i do not upload a good picture
simply because I haven't yet got the right title for it

nu e HDR deloc am facut poza pe manual (shutter si Focal length gandite pe moment), pe cloud mode, my colours (unde am dat accent pe sharpen si contrast) si probabil de asta arata asa ..dar si datorita editarii in photoshop (sharpen work pe 3 layere si ceva curves ... )

Wow...super tare poza. Cum se vad ridurile omului...si cum sta ...parca mai mai astepata sa-i vina moartea , cu sapa in mana...sa-si sape si singurel groapa .
Imi plac mult pozele de genu' asta. felicitari.

Nu consider chiar asa de trista, pana la urma e doar o realitate in care traim zi de zi, insa modul in care ai facut poza scoate in evidena trasaturile dansului, cel putin la o prima vedere cam asta vrea sa arate desi aparentele pot insela .
O captura foare buna Alex, si un portret foarte bine realizat
