SPAIN - BILBAO -BIZKAIA PHOTO CLUB International Photo Exhibition first award, Golden Medal
This is an argentine gaucho, and matrero is a spanish word (maybee some slang expression).- That man has a wildlife defects, thoughtless, subject to the myth of manhood, which is also his under greater; anarchic, reluctant to standards, sometimes undisciplined... but brave, sincere, a loyal man and right, is a product of the great Pampa land immense, emanation of nature in the that moves.-
A documentary and at the same tome a portrait in its outmost power, Luis! The subtle separation of the many fromhis background by lighting and focus is absolutely stunning! You have another BIP here, of which I wonder if I would be able to shoot like this any day at all! The finest degree of details and still without any unnatural exaggeration, a "usual" face expression that you turned so special, and the aged look - all ingedients if timeless photography! Speaking about details, even his hands are completely visible in all the results of his hard work!
una gran foto Luis, la que yo he visto expuesta luce con unos negros más profundos, con un fondo algo más oscuro (con menos detalle) y sin este tinte amarillo/sepia que tiene la que has subido; la foto impresa que yo he visto (y que está en el catálogo?, ¿la enviaste tu ó mandaste un archivo digital y ellos se han encargado de la impresión? de cualquier forma, fantástica un KAPO abrazo....txules
