Happy Straw Man, a photo from Baden-Wurttemberg, West

Photographer's Note

When you are travelling keep your eyes open, search in local newspaper, visit tourist information offices.

In this way you will be fully informed about actions, landmarks, tourist attractions and interesting sights.
In such way I’ve discovered this interesting smiling Straw Man.

It was one of many straw sculptures from straw sculpture competition which was organized in 2013.

Even after one year, exposed to winter and summer weather (snow, rain and sunshine) the figures have been in excellent conditions.

I hope that you like this specimen, I brought for you. Keep smiling as well.

Bonjour Miro,

J'aime beaucoup ce bonhomme de paille. Son sourire est très contagieux et il représente très bien cette période de l'année entre le chaud de l'été et le froid de l'hiver.

Bon samedi

Serge

Hello Miro,
nice the beautiful 'portrait' from the straw sculpture with its ref cap to make the difference and to be the eye catching of the image as contrast perfect with the other colours of the image.Excellent the light and the colour management of the scene.

Regards,Danos

Hello Miro,
this is a delightful picture, I like that you've framed your cute and intriguing subject as if this were a portrait. He stands very nicely in the tight frame and has a lovely homogeneous backdrop that sets him off. He looks 3D and it's fun to explore his diverse textures. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great evening,
Ourania

Hi Miro,

Ahaha, just as jovial...but not as creepy this time. :)

A wonderful image that exemplifies your notes, and I couldn't agree more! It really is important to keep attentive of your surrounding for these types of opportunities...be it through daily life happenings or suggestions from others.

Proof positive on your part that interesting subjects and moments aren't always the biggest and most popular attractions. Super sharpness, clarity and detail...this makes me smile in return. :) Have a great week ahead. All the best.

Friendly wishes,

Jason

Hi Miro
Another great fun shot of the day, good idea to have him as your greeter as he is very cheerful. You've captured him well too. I love the striking colour, the contrast and the close crop which add the impact. Well done, Congrats
Best regards
