Osman: Beautiful capture and pp. Thanks for the description. You've caught that sense of loneliness very well. The desaturated pp enhances it.Something pulled me in his direction. It was impossible to miss the greatness of this shoe-shiner's sorrow.
Then a customer approached him, only to be dismissed with a wave of his creased and stained hand. He didn't want to do anything else, but to live out his sorrow.
I felt lonely and helpless, just like him. All I could do was to capture the moment. I'm glad I did.

rayyan: You da man!Matt: ' m ' *** if you will. I wouldn't mind being a little reverential!!
Thanks pal.
Matt: +1 with maggie on this one. Try to show them this see how it takes,
Regards.
...Matt, you are the poster child for not having to upgrade from old noctilux to new noctilux. The look that that lens produces is so unique ... and you wield it so well. I also love the way you utilize shallow dof in your street images.
Simon & Garfunkle Started Out Like This! Super Series & PP Matt!
Great series Matt. I like the b/w too. Glad you were there to record the recording.
Kurt/Steve/Lloyd/Ashwin: Gentlemen, thank you....Matt, lovely capture at Pikes Place? you are become the Pike's Place Maestro, my friend. It's a great place to "be" and to "see" in Seattle to appreciate the Pac NW, and you frame it well...
Jono: Thank you. Beautiful color in this photo. The slightly yellow greens, and stucco, contrast well with the light blue clouds and sky. Understated. Looks like a great place to work!...Matt - Like others, the last of the band shots (NO Stops tow away zone) is fab...
This is where I work when I'm at home . . . Emma does framing downstairs, and I fiddle about upstairs:

Steve: Could be worse. We could have been the ones smelling for a ride!! ' You the gal for me '.Decisive Moment?
:wtf:
Decisive Moment?
:wtf:
Lloyd: Great photos. Wonderful thing to do with him and for him to do. :thumbup:We discovered our oldest grandson is absolutely fascinated with gardening. He couldn't get enough of helping Mimi plant, weed, etc. He and his parents returned to New York (where they live in an apartment) on Sunday, and they've already stared a little box garden for him on their balcony.

rayyan: Four beautiful photos of a beautiful country! The reflections and the rich, pure, intensity of the color in this one's incredible. I love the signature "rayyan" pp (a touch of it in the reflections); but, this one raises the bar again. :thumbup:Ayesha and me have been lucky to have traveled to a lot of countries.
Which is our favorite destination...Without hesitation...Switzerland.
To us it is the people and the place. We have not found any better.
So here, for a few days, is our impression of this beautiful country.
We travel by train...the most efficient service in the world. Believe us. We are right on this one.
Gorgeous color. Almost abstract. Very nice Jono.Here is a little shot from our bedroom window (just above the bath)

Steve, this reminded me of a shot a got last fall. Apparently, it's not just dogs!Decisive Moment?
:wtf:
Lloyd: ???Matt: you totally crack me up dude!
Lloyd: It has a meditative, church-like quality. Well done. The photographer did transform the place.I pass by this fairly often, and even photographed a bride here once. I always thought it looked so quiet and peaceful. Fact is, it's right about the food court for a mall (the open area behind), and most of the time I'm there, it's ridiculously noisy! But, photography lets us create our own mood, right?

Terrific stuff (what's new?) This and the one above, Ashwin.And today in Seattle, it was SUNNY. Matt's got Pike's Place covered. I'll try out my local park, Gasworks Park....here ya go!
