[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
the fourth of the series "RPG International Event".

the pp was very easy: cropped a bit (as usually), played with brightness/contrast, levels before turning to sepia tone, added grains (soft ones), resized, added frame, saved for the web. very much my trademark, somehow.
oh, yes, i had to use the clone out tool to get rid of a guy on the left hand side coz he looked like a pirate´s parrot on the first monk´s shoulder.
scary, uh?
the tennis shoes are just a detail ;))
comments welcome. :))

Interessante. Gostei da sua foto. É um tanto ao quanto misteriosa e assustadora ao mesmo tempo. Well done

I didn't quite catch what the "RPG International Event" is all about.
At first I thought you were fed up with your soft, sensuous (only positive) way of capturing people and decided to go gothic.
The series of photos are interesting and you have shared a lot of interesting pp notes.
They are a bright contrast to your photos in terms of patience and declare a "punk/party" attitude that you have emphasizes in your pp work.
Congrats to your co work.

Os trajes são de Franciscanos, mas as caras deles são mais do tipo Ku Klux Klan. Em todo o caso não parecem meninos de ir à igreja.

Hi Isabelle, I would like to ask what is RPG, because I am just shocked from your new series of photos, but maybe this is the poen in it. I think these guys look very sick, I am very glad they wear tennis shoes otherwise it looked terrifying. I don't know how was the original, but you really changed it to horroristic. I am sure, it was a good fun, but I do not understand the motivation really. Thanks for your detailed notes on pp.

I htink i liked this on more then the nun picture but i do like both. Very very diferent. Cool, absured in a way. They seem to have sproung out of someonse dream, night mare would be my guess ;)Very well done Isabel

J'adore cette image. il y a un côté inquiétant et aussi un côté joyeux et j'aime cette dualité. Le gars aux tennis a un regard très inquiétant. le pp est bien réalisé.

Hi Isabelle,
I like this shot. Sepia and the lighting is nice. Great result.

Dramatic even scary, I like the mood with monks.... why, because it's mysterious, I think.... and with this picture, you gave a wonderful mood with the light, good shot, Isabel !

A very interesting image with such an atmosphere, a beat gloomy, but great.
