Even though photo exhibitions are the hardest to photograph, due to the constant and extremely annoying reflections, that are forcing me to be creative, I still love them as these are the places where I can get a lot of inspiration and learn from the best. Each time I get to see a series of amazing photos, that show me a totally different world to me.
This setup for example is not quite special, I mean I bet you won't find it special in broad daylight, yet when there's that gorgeous light behind the roof, you can take a gorgeous photo like this. I love how the light spreads behind the roof. Opportunities like that don't knock on the door every day, I can assure you.
A very precious moment between mother (or grandmother) and daughter, captured from a perfect angle and the light is a bonus.
Don't be angry with me my dear, I still have the painted yoke.
The painted yoke is the hand painted wooden thing above this lovely old couple's head. In case you don't know what it is:
A yoke is a wooden beam sometimes used between a pair of oxen or other animals to enable them to pull together on a load when working in pairs, as oxen usually do; some yokes are fitted to individual animals. source
But this photo has a way deeper meaning. What you see here is a couple that lived their whole life together, working to make ends meet, not for having a luxurious life. What you see behind them is the corn that they grew on their land, to have as staple for the animals during winter. Simple life and happiness.
That yoke is not in use anymore as most of the works are done by machines, but they still have it and it looks great.
There were these two photos, from the same photographer, but none of them was a regular photo. The second one has some texture added, but the first one remains a mystery. If you know more about these two colorful works, feel free to let me know.
Another two photos of different kind, from a different photographer. Interesting both, but not really my cup of tea.
This photo broke my heart for the obvious reasons. Sometimes I give photos titles like moments of life, but this is not a moment, this is a lifetime and how many live like this old man.
I think this monochrome portrait worth gold. Look at the light and the facial expression with all those tiny details highlighted. I've not seen this type or portrait often at exhibitions, nor on Hive if I come to think about it. It would be interesting to play with the light and experiment, like the photographer did here. I love it. Too bad the light ruined it a bit, but you still see the meaning.

Steaming mountains are always my favorite. Last year I had the pleasure to see steaming mountains when it was raining and I can assure you, it's a very unique experience. I could have sit there all day, watching the mountains steaming, but it was pouring. This photo was taken when the sun was shining, which is the case in the mourning quite often at that altitude, when the morning dew is drying up. It's very relaxing to look at this photo, especially now, when everything is gray outside.
It's been ages since I last saw charcoal makers in action. Looking at this photo, makes me feel the smell of burning wood, which you experience when charcoal is made.
It was an interesting exhibition with a lot of good shots. i hope you have a favorite.
