About I was taking shots in Via Dante (Milan) during twilight while I noticed a particularly strong light from a shop hitting the street and the walking people.
This was creating a strange effect that I've tried to capture; you can see it on the woman with her son in the middle of the composition. They seem to be alive on the screen...or it's only an impression of mine...?
Thanks in advance...even just for reading this comment. :)

I find this shot very impresive!
It is good light coming from left and the man is watching it like that there is something special...
It is also very nice that beside people you have great DOF.
Because of the movement the people faces are not recognizable what makes it even more secret and majestic!

I like this fine street scene.Nicely done.

Hi Paolo : I like this Photograph, extremely original, gives the impression of the capture of live movement, coming out of the picture......!!!

Jeff.

Excellent shot, Paolo! I agree with your comment on the people in the middle. They seem to pop up out of my screen. Better, yet: the other figures which have a stronger motion blur seem to vanish into the background) Amaising use of light in combination with shutterspeed. Besides, I think it is a perfect composition. A schoolbook example. Technically, I believe this is a truely perfectly executed shot! Huge dynamism and very, very appealing. Into my favourites....

Cheers,

Hugo

Anch'io ho avuto l'impressione di trovarmi di fronte ad una scena viva, in movimento, sembra di poterle toccare quelle persone tanto risaltano sullo schermo, è una scena fantastica, con una luce un po' magica e con la torre del castello che sorveglia. Ciao Max


Nedim Muhic   {K:13844} 1/28/2004
Very nice shot Paolo, again, as usual...
Regards, Nedim.

Wow Paolo, this is awesome. If you could somehow get a flash shot at the same time and use the details from that to paint in the faces and other details on the 'moving' figures, the illusion would be complete.
Well seen and captured.
Warm regards, David

ps- my most recent shot (a frozen moment in time) owes credit to you as an inspiration for the toning (I'm not there yet, but I'm learning).


Hugo Pierre   {K:15692} 1/28/2004
Excellent night snapshot! Real document of people walking in a big city without posing.
Very well done! Regards, Hugo.

I see what you mean--a very surreal feeling. I just love this shot. CC


Ryan Milley   {K:72} 1/29/2004
Excellent mechanics, and visually stimulating. Nice shot!


Pedro Libório   {K:53855} 1/30/2004
lovely work!!!...and I do agree with you about the woman and here son...
fantastic!


Gregory McLemore   {K:25057} 1/30/2004
Lovely tones along with good energy captured, excellent work.


Han Timmer   {K:483} 1/30/2004
Me lo piace molto. E' quel tipo di "snap shot" che dà qualcosa di più, anche perchè la composizione è molto bene. Il contrasto fra il primo piano colorato e lo sceneggiatura del castello è bello anche. Ottimo. E non deve essere in focus. Saluti, Han.


Paolo De Maio   {K:34166} 2/2/2004
effettivamente con il cavalletto hai realizzato una foto da copertina..poichè madre e figlio sembrano veramente saltate fuori dallo schermo ed i passanti al lato conferiscono una dinamicità alla scena eccezionale.
Calda e gradevole la luce laterale che ammorbidisce le tonalità scure e trasmette un senso di calore a chi la guarda (anche i passanti chiusi nei loro cappotti fanno il resto)
Bella realizzazione Paolo!!
A presto
Paolo

beautiful Paolo..


sandy c. hopkins   {K:17107} 2/3/2004
this is wonderful..the warm tones are just great...
lovet the busy street feel of the piece.. everyone kinda in their own worlds...so close yet so far.


Graham Mulrooney   {K:16868} 2/4/2004
I see what you mean Paolo the light does make them stand out. Their pose as well makes them almost look like a French street painting. I tried a crop of the 3 people in the middle with the church behind. It looked good except there was too much motion blur for a close up. A great full of interest picture with lovely colours and atmosphere, but this goes for all your excellent portfolio.
Regards,
Graham.
