Artist's Comments

A stranger: Quebec Rainbow gathering 2009: Philip 67 years old


Vie dans une autobus scolaire qu'il a transformé en camper, est végétalien, ne prend aucune drogue, ne fume pas, ne bois pas, est en pleine forme. Un des homme les plus génial que j'ai rencontré. Fait germé ses propre germes dans sont camper, vas au Mexique à tout les année durant l'hivers... Un homme plein de sagesse que je suis allé voir à plusieurs reprise pour philosopher sur la vie .


Lives in a schoolbus he converted into a camp, he's vegan, doesn't take drugs, doesn't smoke or drink, and is in great shape. One of the most brilliant man I have ever met. Grows his own vegetables in the bus. Goes to Mexico each year.... A very wise man that I visited repeatedly to philosophize about life.

Critiques


:iconlaihine:
En écrivant une histoire pour chacune de ses photos, l'auteur parvient à faire de la réalité un conte de fée à la fois tragique et profondément humaine.
De plus en choisissant de photographier ses sujets dans leurs intérieur il nous montre combien la maison de chacun peut-être le reflet du jardin intérieur que tous nous cultivons plus ou moins.
Cependant le cadre prend trop de place et atténue les couleurs.

By writing a story for each of his photos, the author succeeds in making of the reality like a fairy tale of, at once tragic and deeply human. Furthermore by choosing to photograph his subjects in their inside he shows us how much the house of each maybe the reflection of the internal garden which all cultivate us more or less. However the frame takes too much place and limits colors.

I absolutely adore all the colors in this shot and it definitely deserves the 'rainbow' in the title. It's a pleasure to watch all these vibrant colors, especially combined with all the details in the background. There's so much to look at, but my eyes constantly go back to his friendly face and his beautiful eyes. He definitely looks like he has a lot to tell and has been through a lot. I'd love to hear more about him and the way he sees things. I'm sure the conversations you've had with him must have been interesting.

I love how you centered him in the midst of his surroundings. Like I said, my eyes keep going back to him. Great work on the focus and the composition. I really love the lighting on his face as well.

Superb shot!
