About Someone who was born or lives in Rio Grande do Sul is known as ?gaucho?. The origins of gauchos is a mix of people from many parts of the world: native indians and immigrants from countries like Portugal, Germany, Italy, Poland, Russia, Ucrania, as well as jewish people from all over around. From this mix it was originated a rich and peculiar culture. Among the more characteristic manifestation of ?gaucha culture? we have the habit of drinking ?chimarrão? (a hot drink made of a native and bitter herb).
Please, read more information about "gauchos" and "chimarrão" in the "about" of previous composition.

(Sally A. have got why I like this shot.. yes.. here, the woman looks as the man?s shadow.. thank you, Sally!)

Excellent shot.


Carmem A. Busko   {K:48767} 8/10/2004
Hugo de Wolf said yesterday there was no reason to desaturate the BG.. I don?t know..
The original colored version is here to compare.

Oi Carmem,
Mais uma foto muito legal com esse efeito de deixar somente o primeiro plano colorido para dar destaque!!!
Eh impressao ou eles parecem estar rezando?? Talvez estejam reverenciando o amado Chimarrao!!! :)
um abraco,
Cesar


Sally A.   {K:4574} 8/10/2004

Good job

Hummm, utilizando seus privilégios de donor, hein!
Tá ficando muito boa esta série!
Espeiclamente pelo fundo desfocado e em PB! Ficou muito bonito, e nesta segunda foto ficou bem mais aparente o chimarrão do gaucho ai! Na anterior, tinha fidado meio oculto!

7 e um abraço....

Dear Carmen,

Exellent explanation of the evaluation of this people in such a brief story. By the way, nice PS work(color and black&white). Composition is also OK. Keep on going.
Regards..... Riny

Keep up the great work, Carmem!!!

Hugo de Wolf   {K:185054} 8/10/2004
Hi Carmem, as it's almost the same shot (as to the technique and the set up (maybe not quite the same, but at least comparable) I'd like to repeat what I commented yesterday. As you've posted the orignal of this shot as a comment with the first photo, I believe that even stronger. The DOF takes care of singling out the man, and I don't think the selective colour adds anyghing.

Compared to the previous one, I like this shot better, as it's more close-up. Good one. My favourite remains the colour version of this shot, though...)

Cheers,

Hugo


John Loreaux   {K:86135} 8/10/2004

Edu Guedes   {K:3541} 8/10/2004
Nossa Carmem...não tem com um gaúcho não gostar de uma imagem dessas...Sem comentários...*7


Marcio Janousek   {K:32409} 8/11/2004
Oi Carmem , claro que agradou , acho que também a maioria...,além dos contrastes medios as sombras estão otimas..
como seria se ela fosse toda em preto e branco ?
não daria um peso maior no contexto ?
as duas expressão estão boas mas sei que gosta das cores não é?
abçs,


Carmem A. Busko   {K:48767} 8/11/2004
tinha experimentado... Marcio.. o casaco do cara ?muito escuro.. que que você acha?
Carmem



Eduardo Didonet   {K:301} 8/11/2004
Muito boa, Carmem!
Realmente um olhar diferenciado é para poucos e você tem esse privilégio.

Um beijo,
Eduardo

Hope your computer is okay now, still very limited what I can use mine for, sneak on Dens when I can, but can only get at shots on my card.


Saeed Al Shamsi   {K:47730} 8/11/2004
A great job,the selective colour works really perfect here ,super shot.Saeed


Angelo Villaschi   {K:49617} 8/11/2004
Bem melhor essa, da pra ver a cuia e a bomba muito bem.

Concordo com o Hugo, a dessaturacao foi desnecessária.


Orazio Minnella   {K:48580} 8/11/2004
Great portrait.Amazing colors.Very well done.
Regards..Orazio


Thilo Bayer   {K:50355} 8/11/2004
Dear Carmem,

okay, I see the point here ;-)
nice work again with the mix of desaturated and colorized parts. the "shadow effect" is just great. very surreal and ghost-like.
good idea!
cheers,
thilo


Fadel J   {K:13909} 8/12/2004
Great image Carmem! I love the the mixed color/BW very much. The shadow idea is just creative!


Mauro     {K:5870} 8/13/2004
Likely contrast. Very nice colored first plane against b&w background. Well done. Bye(7+)
