[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Taken in the garden of the "Théâtre de Toone" in Brussels.

What attracted me is the fact that when looking at this tiny hole in the wall, one doesn't know where freedom is ... the place where I am taken the shot or at the opposite side where one can see grass ?

Maybe freedom is where you feel yourself free ...

What a cool shot Sylvie :) Your compo is really good and that white wall weirdly brings nice textures and gives a good contrast to the oposite side of the hole. And the note fills the painting :)

Hi Sylvie,

Nice shot! Differnt from the other ones.
Indeed I think you are right: even freedom is relative.
Anyway, it's a fine photo and a very sensible note. I like the compo. Worked wonderfully

take care, Stefania

Very good picture Sylvie...I like the difference...white and the small piece of green..your ey for detail works well here again ;-)

Lovely and very strong picture in fine clear colors... Somehow a bit scarry with red dots on the white wall... looks a litttle like blood... TFS...Ina...

Fantastic idea and execution Sylvie! I like how the strong white color makes a very fine contrast for the green on the other side! Fantastic shot!

Hi Sylvie,
Nice shot. And accompanying note. This reminds me of that saying "The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence." Viewing the wall from your side, make's it look like you're in a prison, but, who indeed is to say the otherside isn't the same or worse? So I agree with you...freedom is where you feel you are free.
Well seen.
Richard

You must have a good eye to be able to "see" this beautiful picture before you push the shutter. The way you accent the textured wall with the green vegatation compels one attention. Thanks for sharing.

even a lackluster view like this if seen thru the lens and captured by Sylvie would transform into an interestingly brilliant photo! great...

j'aime bien la plante verte sur les genoux de la dame assise dans le métro que l'on apercoit dans le reflet de la vitre.... et zut, c'est pas ca !! INCROYABLE ! je regardais la photo et je commençais à descendre le curseur pour lire en diagonal ce qu'on écrit les zamis, et je vois "Sylvie" HEIN ? !! je remonte vite fait, et oui c'est bien toi !! INCREDIBLE !!
Bravo, j'aime beaucoup ta photo et la note appropriée (a moins que ce ne soit l'inverse) en tous cas ce carré ouvert "vers la liberté" est superbe. bon cadrage, et techniquement irréprochable. travail soigné.
bravo
C.K.

I always like a view within a view, and this is one of those. Very nice composition, and the sun on the green leaves is pleasing.

wow, Sylvie...
2 great shots in one, very good capture;)

beautiful composition, i like how u can see a little of the green grass on the other side of the wall though the windows...can't tell if thats inside or outside...i like that

To this photo I don't have to say much more than: Great minds think alike!
Have a look at this.

oui, c'est vrai, il y a bien l'aspect que vous décrivez dans la photo, mais à mon avis en plus, ce mur blanc avec le rouge de la brique sous la fenêtre, en forme de larmes de sang, je n'sais pas ... c'est un peu comme l'équilibre fragile entre le Yin et le Yang... au demeurant j'aime beaucoup.

hermosa fotografía!!!...

Bonjour Sylvie,
Que te dire? "j'aime bien ceci cela, bla, bla,..."?
"j'aime bien ton oeil vif et acéré, blé, blé..."?
"comment fais-tu pour blu, blu..."?
Non, point de pleurs, ni de vers d'ailleurs, ni de verres d'ailleurs, surtout chez Toone, l'oeil atone, je regarde, je m'embarque, je m'imprègne, tu es la reine!

Claude

En l'absence provisoire de JP, je le remplace...
