Anakatosaria : lignite mine

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

hi all,

i have taken a photographic job with a friend of mine that
we work together for some things last month, from Anakatosaria
(an assosiation that makes a big event in a town in greece).
It is an event that has a different concept every year with some
different happenings that take place 4 days every march.
This years concept is emigration.
We will do many different photographic ideas based on emigration.

concept: a lignite miner, before and after. in young age (working in mine in belgium) and at old age leaving belgium.

photographers: Theodoros Chliapas, Patroklos Skafidas

makeup: Vaggelis Nikopoulos

location: lignite mine


your comments are always appreciated.

thanks a lot,
theodoros

Very nice Theo. I like the way you have captured something in a very unforced way - your direction is spot on.

The orange overalls are quite a strong element in each due to the selective de-sat, which may draw away from their expressions, but I guess that enforces certain points about the topic.

many many thanks all.

Heath you are right. Orange are strong but it is due to the subject.
