Double portrait, a photo from Delhi, North

Photographer's Note

I was visiting one of the most important muslim temples in New Delh, the Nizam-ud-din's shrine, looking forward to hear the chants of the famous Sufi singers. It was a celebration day and thusounds of people were gathered, packed in the narrow corridors. Suddendly I saw these two men that were doing the exactly same movements and had the same expresions. After 2-3 minutes of "observing" them I decided to lift my camera and they turned towards me simultaneously having the excact same look.

Hi Hercules.
¨οτι και να γραψω για εδώ θα είναι λίγα, αλλά θα το αποτολμήσω.
Έχεις ενα απίθανα καταπληκτικό διπλό πορτραίτο, μπραβο.
Και κανόνισε να πας το συντομότερο στην Κρήτη θα περνάς πολύ καλύτερα.

Kalispera Hercules.
Qué mirada más dura la de este hombre.
No son los típicos retratos "agradables" y amables que normalmente se ven en TE, y eso le aporta un interés extra.
Un buen trabajo, sin ninguna duda.

Carlos.

Hi Hercules,

Fantastic portrait, the face of this man have very much questions! Maybe a pity for the little bit dark eyes, but absolutely not disturbing, I find this a wonderful portrait, my compliments.

Best regards,
John.

Precisamente ayer hablaba con un amigo sobre cuanto añoro Asia. Esta foto me recuerda mi destino favorito en aquel continente. Nada es igual una vez que has visitado India. Me gusta este retrato porque de alguna forma me permite ver la personalidad del hombre, es como si hubieses atrapado su esencia. Un abrazo.

A really powerful double portrait, Hercules! This seems to me a technical perfection combined with a superb sense of timing. Terrific image.

alejandroguzman (4684) 2007-02-03 19:39

hello Hercules:

Magnificent portrait.
I loved the way you caught the expression in this man, and also the other man in the background. Maybe it would show more contrast with a black thick frame ...

Great work, congratulations !!!

hugs
Alejandro

This is a fine double portrait, Hercules. The two heads seem to move in parallel. I can see the intensity in the men's looks. Well done. Regards,

This really is a 'double portrait'. The lines on his face say 1000 words.

Great composition. The colour is great as well as the sharpness.

Well done.
