[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Feeling like above all living beings and yet mistreated by the destiny as an inferior creature way below the lowest ones. From one branch to another we keep looking for that force capable of lifting our souls, through speed or through intensity, above our common daily steps. There is no such pleasure though as the one we can have while sleeping. The denial of life and art, of all our beloved ones as well as all the others, night without memories or illusions and finally, at last, no past neither future.

Great action photo! Nicely composed. I find it interesting that you made it black and white sice most amusement park photos are brightly colored. :) It is great though. JP

At this speed it's not easy to make a so well focused shot...I can say only I love this picture, it's a very interesting metaphor.

Very nice framing, everything is at the right place at the right moment. Beautiful b&w realisation. The reflections are particularly appealing.

What a catch of movement here!!!
Mirrored tower with reflection of rails is amazing.
Composition is perfect.
Congrats Gal, this one is fantastic.

Hi Gal,
not only a great motion shot, but an amazing geometrical composition. Lines, reflections, curves, parellels.. a delight for my senses!
and a touching note, too.
congrats.
Marisa

You really do wax poetic when it comes to rollercoasters don't you Gal?

Great sharpness and contrast on this well composed shot (the Tamron I see--that's next on my lens list! Unfortunately I wont have the cash til the new year at the earliest).

Cheers man!

É uma foto fantástica, desde a composição à acção tudo está de facto perfeito. Até os reflexos estão perfeitos!!
Gostei muito mesmo! É um excelente trabalho com uma bela nota.
Parabéns!

Ana

PS: Muito obrigado pela critica tão emocionada que deixou na minha foto de Lisboa! Tenho andado com muito trabalho e ainda não pude responder, de qualquer forma aqui fica o meu muito obrigado.

C'est propre, clair et net ... il ne manque que le bruit et l'illusion serait parfaite.

Hi Gal,
Nice image. Good note to accompany it. Good composition and shades of gray. I just wonder...why you didn't go saturate color? I think it would've better translated the message in "...looking for that force capable of lifting...through speed or through intensity..." Oh, or maybe the b&w is the abstract for illusions and dreams? Anyhow...good shot.
Take care!
Richard

Hi Gal, splendid note again, as usual. If yoyu ever stop posting you should go to a publisher with it.
I read your message to Richard, and indeed the weather looks very, very dull. Yet, this one came out quite good. I like the lines and the mood in it, the lines in the reflection are really nice. You froze the monent very well.
I like the expression on the faces, it's very well visible.
Have you been in it?

Fantastic action shot, Gal. The detail and clarity are both excellent. I especially like the expression of the person in the white (at the back) and the reflection in the glass structure. Very well captured.

Great composition and expressions on the faces, Gal. I'd like to see the colour version too - bet it's also good.

Well composed, Gal. Clean detail. The curves render motion very well. Using B&W make us focus more on the action.
I appreciated the response you made to Shutter2Think.
