Rui thanks again for your comment on my photo.

This one is truly great; you have really captured a classic style photo. It is a real joy to look at, almost experience the moment....

Excellent
Rui Palha  Thank you a lot.

This shoot is just amazing! You did a picture in the same level of Bresson finest!

And i love that it's not cropped, which could be the first impulse. The more i see it the more i understand it without cropping.
Rui Palha  Thank you a lot, Jorge.
(99% of my photos are not cropped, I think we should show what we saw in a certain moment...the cropping makes "another" photo, not the real one)

This is incredible! Great timing! Reminds me of the following: 'Behind The Gare St. Lazare'(Henri Cartier-Bresson 1932)

Um dia has-de me dizer como consegues congelar a chuva desta maneira ( ja tentei mas nunca consegui uma nitidez como aqui nesta foto!) Acho que devias ter aumentado um pocuo a velocidade de obturação (o pé a esquerda da mulher ficou um bocado tremido).
Rui Palha  João, se a velocidade de obturação fosse superior não verias a chuva como a vês...talvez seja por isso que nunca conseguiste "captar" (e não congelar) a chuva deste modo.
Obrigado pelo comentário.

P.S. About croping vs. not cropping the ground: I like this uncropped composition, it gives the right evidence to the strong rain...

Rui, another excellent capture, taken in the right moment, perhaps better with fewer foreground... A pleasure to see,
Fernand
Rui Palha  Thank you, Fernand.
As you certainly know, in street photography it's not so easy to get the ideal frame...what is more important it's the moment... framed, of course, in the best way we can do it.
And don't forget this is a "no crop" photograph...
This one isn't a staged shot. It's a real decisive moment...
Fernand Hick  Rui, I didn't know your choice "no crop" shooting. I respect it totally. In this context, my comment has no reason to be. Shooting the decicive moment is another superb photogaphic approach. Let see more...
Regards,
Fernand
Rui Palha  Thank you, Fernand.
Sooner (I think) you will see another decisive moment..."on the air"...a pure street shot.

So so good! did you publish a book with your umbrella series? i think you should anyway, every single one of them being so rich! BRAVO!

The book...very expensive here, in Portugal. Somebody has to invest in it...not me.

Wonderful shot with great feel, and a new favourite of mine! It would have been utterly perfect with the reflection a split of a second later, with the whole figure in the water pond. But that's minor details of course. The image is fabulous!

a second later and this photo couldn't exist...:-))
