[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
As I was walking along the Spree river on that Sunday afternoon in Berlin, I saw these two men facing each other as if they were the copy of one another ...

Slightly different positions but similar aspect ...

The one who could notice me didn't have a look at me when I took the shot.

I will never know if they knew each other and if they were aware of how their position on these benches could be curious to the others and especially to someone looking for photos opportunities.

I imagined some stories about what could have happened between them on that Sunday afternoon in Berlin ...

O-ho-wow, Sylvie ... :)))

What an idea for a sculpture!! The battle of knees!!! very intriguing position of these two guys.

You captured it really well, maybe if you were just a bit more to the centre, but that's a really minor detail.

Great, great shot! ComplimentS!

this would look good in B/W to focus on the poses of the man here ..very well seen and captured sylvie

Bonsoir Sylvie.
Toujours un peu étonnants, tes clichés, une vue étrange...tu connais la pub!
Très belle idée de prise de vue, cette opposition, surtout qu'on ne voit pas l'expression d'un des deux personnages, visiblement ils attendent quelque chose ou quelqu'un, peut-être deux quelqu'unes, ha, ha, pourquoi pas...allez, je vais me faire un roman...
Bonne soirée!

Edie

quelle composition Sylvie! Je vais me répéter à la force... mais tu as une vision incroyable de notre monde urbain... Comme le note Edie, celle-ci est très relaxante... ça fait du bien aussi de voir la lumière naturelle ;D

Bonjour Sylve, à ce que je vois il y a des paresseux comme moi à Berlin, c'est vrai pourquoi courir, maintenant je vais doucement en penant le temps comme il passe.
Tu as une très belle composition comme toujours et je vois que tu es aussi adroite à la surface qu'en sous-sol.
Magnifique.

Very fine idea to take this shot with these people opposite each other. Good POV for this photo. Nice work.

Bonjour Sylvie,

J'adore le cadrage serré sur cette photo. J'aime beaucoup aussi l'expression de l'homme a droite qui semble regarder d'un air interrogateur la personne sans tête à gauche. Ca nous donne encore plus envie de savoir comment est cette personne à gauche.
Bravo en tout cas!

Marc.

Hi Sylvie,
Nice shot. It looks rather relaxing. Nice composition, too. It seems divided down the middle, by the benches, but, it's not. But, I wish you had moved just a little to the left to get all of the bench on the left, too. The exposure and colors look right on, though. And the sharpness looks so good. Well seen.
Take care!
Richard

Très observatrice la photographe que tu es... super bien...

Hi Sylvie,
this is really cool. Good situation. Great scene.
I like it,
Nino
