at 135mm, 1/250 f/5.6, ISO 100, hand held. New York, United States.

Per senso etico e per mio pudore personale non fotografo mai persone in difficoltà perchè mi sembrerebbe di violare la loro privacy in un momento di forte debolezza e, forse, di disperazione. In questo caso però, complice il fatto, per me fondamentale, che la persona ritratta fosse completamente irriconoscibile e che i colori dell'insieme attirassero, comunque, la mia attenzione mi sono deciso a concedermi una deroga. Anche per una forma di doverosa denuncia sociale: qui siamo, infatti, nella 8th Ave, famosissima arteria che costeggia il lato ovest di “Central Park”, a pochi passi dal “Columbus Circle”, zona ricchissima e per ricchi, ricca purtroppo anche, scusate il gioco di parole, di queste palesi... “contraddizioni”.

Carissimi amici,

grazie mille per la graditissima presenza e per avere apprezzato questa mia immagine, soprattutto, per il suo drammatico significato.

E' vedendo scene come questa, e le grandi città ne sono tutte coinvolte, che, come direbbe un noto presentatore televisivo, "sorge spontanea la domanda": è davvero così utile spendere miliardi e miliardi di dollari (euro) per finaziare guerre sanguinose ed... infinite?Triste

Ma qui andiamo a toccare un altro argomento che renderebbe il discorso troppo ampio e difficile per cui... mi fermo qui.

Un affettuosissimo saluto ed un buon inizio di settimana,

Paolo

Leggendo i commenti entusiasti mi sono chiesto a cosa servono oggi foto del genere: a mostrare realtà che tutti noi conosciamo o per averle viste realmente ( perché oggi il mondo lo possono girare tutti anche se non è necessario andare lontano per vederle), a mostrare quanto si è bravi con la fotocamera, o a qualcosa che mi sfugge ? Almeno servissero come quelle che fa un amico in Africa per esporle da noi e raccogliere fondi per il villaggio che fotografa ( ma magari è proprio questo lo scoop dell'autore), l'unico motivo per che mi porterebbe ad apprezzarle. Altrimenti sono foto inutili che fanno parte del peggior turismo fotografico.

Fcl,
I'm glad you expressed your opinion but, frankly, I'm not interested in any controversy so... I'll stop here.
Good evening,
Paolo

No controversy, I have asked questions, but no one is required to answer me.
