Man with yellow tulips, a photo from London, England

Photographer's Note

In Trafalgar Square one can always observe something interesting. Here I liked how the silvery living statued played with the cute girl. They both seemed delighted.

I suppose that the girl's parents sit there near the real statue and observe the scene. They must have seen me with the camera but they didn't mind.
The similar picture is in Workshop #1 and the silvery man alone in Workshop #2. What to choose as the main one?

Hi Malgo,

You have captured well the happiness of the child. The point of view is showing the details of the living statue. The light is bringing out the colors. Have a nice day.

Hello Malgo,
I think you chose the right main post, although the first WS where they seem to be preparing a high five could also have done well. But this one has a slightly better background. The other WS is useful by showing that he didn't always kneel down like this, which would have been impossible for most people for more than a few minutes. I saw many such living statues during my last several years of travelling. I thought that trend might have stopped by now, because I hardly ever see any in Stockholm.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Malgo,
A great photo of the interaction of the silver statue and the young girl in pink. The background with the real statue and the people watching the scene is very good as well. He'd better give those tulips to the girl, so she could put them in a vase, they look quite sad with their hanging heads.

Ciao Malgo,a very common way to try to make some money, and it's not an easy life to paint yourself silver every time and try to entertain the children. 3 beautiful pictures of the man in silver, as Gert pointed out to me, the arrival of credit cards is creating problems for businesses like these that accept cash only ... ahhaa .. Have a nice evening and thanks,Luciano

Hello Malgo, three fun shots of the living sculpture and the little girl.
It can't be easy keeping still for a pose for so long.
Happy to see some money in his collection box.
Imagine having to spray yourself silver every day? It can't be good for one's skin!
Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards, Jean.

Hi Emka,

A lovely photo of a happy moment between the living statue and the girl, and the people in the background are enjoying the moment too. Good framing and sharpness.

Hi Malgo,
Funny scen well captured, impressive for the girl this kind of statue ... good photos, I like the Ws 3, tfs.

Hello Malgo,
We can see the little girl was not afraid of the live-statue, though he was painted with a tin-color paint which is not appealing so much to children, IMHO.
Nicely captured.
Have a nice new week,
Ike

Hello Malgo,

This is a charming photograph!
The connection between the little girl and the living statue is hypnotic!
I think I would have cropped the scene so that the attention is fully on the two main characters.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

malgo

a posição que o artista ficou na postagem principal é mesmo difícil de manter. linda interação entre a menininha e o artista. esse tipo de arte quase não existe no brasil, creio que as pessoas não tem tanto dinheiro para dar aos artistas de rua.

um abraço

Hi Malgo,
Live statue of a food delivery guy is certainly something new! Maybe it is a work of a secret super hero! I like the smiling expression of the girl.

Hello Malgo,
Three fine photos. If I had to choose I would upload the other WS photo where the statue is interacting with the girl as the main entry. It is a better closeup and I like the expression in the girl's face better.
Regards,
MT

Dear Malgo,

You observed and captured this scene very good. As you mentioned they seem delighted, especially the girl. However, I still wonder what are the tulips for?

Best Wishes,
Gy.
