[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hand painted china has a beauty of it's own. In our modern environment, we got accustomed to objects that are produced based on the concept that function in itself is enough to yield beauty, so decoration if present at all is kept at a bare minimum. Far from me not to accept the validity of this standpoint but on the other hand, I can not forget that there are equally valid other options too.
I like this old picture a lot as it sumarises the three main factors that have to be involved in any creation of graphic art (photography included): the eye, the brain (and you can substitute here with soul if you prefer it that way) and the hand.

Hi Tibi, great photo of this working man, good composition and great focus, very well done, ciao Silvio

Hi Tibi,
I see and understand your POV. ART has been replaced by industrial production. On the other hand, most people are experiencing such financial difficulties that the second option overcomes the first.
Good presentation with fine detail of the subject, well enhanced by the blurring of its surroundings.
TFS
Kind regards,
Lurdes

Nicely captured image of this craftsman.

Hello Tibi,
What a wonderful shot. An excellent work, felled me very. Good presentation.
Beautiful greetings.
Janusz

Bonjour Tibi,
la patience, la main du maitre, des années d'expérience, et un chef d'oeuvre prend forme. D'accord avec toi, sur le travail sans âme, à l'identique. Lorsque la tradition se perpètue, c'est une victoire pour l'homme en général.
Tes couleurs sont naturelles et chaudes, j'aime bien les grosses lunettes qui laisse l'artisan travailler avec soin.

TFS, Corinne

Great moment is in this picture, Tibi.
The hands and eyes of master( also heart)
are here. And your presence near is also from this sphere.
