Très belle capture Alexandre!
L'expresion de cet homme est vraiment extra et la position aussi, le tout renforcé par le N/B.
Bravo!

Marc.

Superbe compo and angle de vue !
Tu as bien fait de choir le Noir et Blanc, l´a tmosphere lourde et solitaire s´en trouve renforcee!

A very dramtic shot Alexandre. The tilt is very effective as it renders the man's body almost vertical and focuses our attention on him. Thansk for sharing this, David

Hi Alexandre,
The picture is nice.. You capture a very good mood, of being old and alone.. B&W is a perfect choice..
But, I didnt like that tilt.. I wouldnt use that angle, I would prefered a horizontal composition.. and I also didnt like that frame wtih that note below.. The photograph already tells the mood.. For this shot, I would prefer a usual, less artistic composition.. But you know, just my opinion..
Good shot indeed.. Congrats..
..Calayan

Bien vu Alexandre, le tilt est bien venu tellement ce viel homme semble s'accrocher au dossier du banc et sa jambe arc-boutée sur le sol. Pour moi il me semble que ce cadrage montre le temps d'avant "la grande bascule", pas forcément la solitude (ce n'est que mon ressenti)
Manque peut-être un peu de piqué, mais le choix du bruit est une bonne option.
quoiqu'il en soit, j'aime beucoup cette photo.

Great picture. Interesting angle. I also like the harsh lightning in the foreground. Conversion into black and white was a brilliant idea. Best wishes!

a kind of humour in the shot,
