The technical Specifications in your pictures are really a nice idea.

This picture is really a nice shot. About your "inversion" suggestion, I must to say that I really liked.

Congratulations,

Arte per uccidere arte, un concetto bizzarro, ma affascinante e stimolante. E' vero che in questo paese si stanno soffocando i modi di espressione sia artistica che di pensiero. Quindi un progetto che veda l'arte come vittima e come colpevole non puo' che esaltarla. Ben venga. Fammi sapere cio' che hai elaborato e prodotto.

Un salutone
ventrix.

This is not a Joke (maybe irony)

This is a Provoke.
And IT WORKS, as i see.
Thank to you all, dear UF members.

I wont like to discuss why my contry teach me, in the past to use it (and more bigger weapons too), or
how i've seen using them, or about the peole around me "like" someone else use weapons for them.

I wont discuss about the means or about the causes ( http://www.usefilm.com/image/564598.html )

This is the GUN i feel over my head.
Living in a country that not promote no one kind of art and coummnication without a PROFIT.
Choking any space to discuss in freedom like everyone is doing here, with his own ideas and feelings.
THAT'S THE BEAUTY OF ART AND CULTURE
They don't support.
We need like AIR.

This is a provocation.
About a concept I'm working on : The Art to Kill the Art.

Thank you for all your precious contributes.
Mr.M.

Esatto Paola e aggiungerei anche che più che aver bisogno di proteggerci da chi ci sta davanti e ci punta violentemente una pistola, talvolta bisogna proteggersi dalle "serpi in seno" che molto subdolamente ti pugnalano alle spalle, magari approfittando del loro bel sorriso e della loro falsa amicizia.
Forse bisogna aver paura più di quello che non si vede ma c'è che non di quello che si vede ma non c'è!

...e adesso scateniamo il vespaio ;)

GG

P.S. Niente di personale fra me, te, Mr.M e nessun altro utente di UF :))))))

la foto è anche in questo caso fatta in modo geniale.
ritengo sia "esageratamente forte" anche in questo caso il messaggio.
ne misi una tantissimo tempo fa che rimossi.
voleva essere uno "scherzo" un gioco che avevo fatto con una mia amica che aveva impugnato un pistola giocattolo e mimava di spararsi in bocca.
Ottima la sua interpretazione e l'espressione dei
suoi occhi. Ricevetti tantissime visite e commenti da parti di persone che avevano capito
ed interpretato il mio "gioco" mentre altri furono assolutamente negativi.
Ecco riflettendo analizzai che la/e foto sono viste da tantissime persone strane e diverse.

mmmm...adesso sono sicura che gli incubi arriveranno...
bravissimo sul punto di fuoco - assolutamente perfetto e relativo dof.
sono piuttosto sorpresa che un f1 abbia cosi' poco campo. cmq preferisco di gran lunga l'originale alla versione rielaborata.

Wow Giuliano! incredible idea! I like the positive and negative, and I must agree, I'd have been very nervous taking that shot too... good thing Mr. M is your friend :)

Scusami se ho spostato lo schermo del mio computer, non si sa mai...
Scatto originale ben supportato da una sfocatura studiata. Il messaggio è forte (anche troppo!!) e l'inventiva, tanta.
Staserà punterò il mio portatile sul divano. C'è mia moglie che guarda la televisione. Tante volte, partisse un colpo.... :-)))))
Grazie per un tuo commento, Giuliano! Buona domenica

Ho capito!!
Mr.M non si stava difendendo dai miei commenti...dici che forse c'era un solo colpo in canna...
Lui stava giocando alla roulette russa, infatti, in realtà i primi da cui dobbiamo difenderci siamo noi stessi:)

Complimenti, gran bell'idea!

Da chi di deve difendere il buon Mr. M., e' vero viviamo in un mondo malvagio ma da qui a mostrare le armi...... ;-))))) Molto curata, ottima rappresentazione.

Non e' male anche l'elaborazione che hai postato succesivamente a questa.

Ciao.

Riesci a far fremere l'animo,a sconvolgerlo e allo stesso tempo a prenderlo per mano e portarlo nei meandri delle cose inusuali...

May be my first reaction was very spontaneous,but have to say that I do like all sorts of humour(included black humour ) and never before wrote any negative comment.But still can't help that I find this not a capture for" a smile :)"..and IMHO it does not matter if a white or a dark background.Regrettably here my sens for humour is abandonned..though may be others can smile about.
Kind regards,Ursula

....HELP ME - I have done nothing to deserve THIS!!!!!!!!!

This rocks and are really a cool shot. This short DOF is great, good lightning, a good composition. Nothing to complain about Giuliano. This does not feel like a threat...pherhaps because of the white background. If you thought about that you succeded very well!!!!!! 7+

To Ursula: In the fiction it?s just fiction, nothing so far have been more cruel than the reality!

Ok, I like your idea here; it is a very powerful concept - with that said, i don't know whether I want to comment on anything negative.

Your depth of field is out, and looking at the thumbnail image in the main critique page, i cannot see what the image actually is. I look at it here and see some wonderful potential, I like your idea, but you haven't quite pulled it off here. Try reshooting and ensuring the barrel opening is in sharp focus.

well done, great idea.

Surely..thats a great shot,excellent and expertly done..though I can't feel comfortable with this at me directed revolver.Perhaps I should tell you,that I can handle rifles and pistols...and the first and most important thing I've learnt is never to direct a weapon at a man..and I consider it not a subject to joke on..especially in those times.
Kind regards,Ursula

Giuliano,
mi sembra un pò esagerato...qualche volta sono stata un pò "tagliente" con i miei commenti, però...questo forse è troppo;-)))

Bellissimo l'effetto sfocato che fa risaltare il tamburo della pistola.
