[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Think twice...
What can we do for them?...


A month ago, my friend and I have visited the zoo to prepare a portfolio about animals for my friend's project... We have taken many photos, however, some of them make me thoughtful...This photo is one of them.


Post-process:
To make the subject effective and strong, background was cleared by using "Knock out 2 Plug in for Adobe Photoshop" and then sepia filter was used on the photo...Finally, noise was added to emphasize the mood...

Hi Can
Very good photograph. the pp is very successful, the distress is visible.
I like this fuzzy hand in the foreground, so near to us.

C.K.

Very strong picture, Can. The mood is well created. Excellent!

very powerful, very well done. you've really created a mood and the PP is excellent thanks, regards, ck

very sad photo, good PP work to bring out the mood in the title...its very powerful

It's important to show things like that! It's not human, the way that sometimes we keep some animal...and you show it very well!
I went to the zoo once in my life, and I came out horrified by seing all those animal with a misereble space for being, locked with almost no space for walking...wiht no space for runnig...

Thanks for sharing!
Carla
