Friday Lens Affair #9
Today’s photography is a work of Cornelia Lohs, German Journalist living between Europe and US. She is a woman behind two great blogs, Unterwegs in America - where I have discovered this blue gem and Strassen Foto Journal where you can admire her b&w pictures.
Picture Story: The photo was taken in La Boca, the most colorful “barrio” (neighborhood) of Buenos Aires and birthplace of the tango. We were on our way to see some tango artists perform in the famous pedestrian street Caminito when I spotted this man. He must have been in his sixties. His clothes perfectly matched the blue wall and his face matched the painting showing a worker. The expression of the man, sitting under the painting, seemed to say “I am tired of working, tired of walking, I need some rest”. I could not resist not taking a photo.
PS. Wish to see your photography here, please contact me! I would love some amazing pictures from your travels around the globe.

I have pictures from Mexico… I don’t travel around the world (although I’d love to) but I’ve gone to different places in the USA and Mexico… would that apply? Or do I need to blog about traveling too? Just wondering! ;)
Great picture!

I do agree, but a b&w version is very good as well.

I love how the man blends into, and at the same time stands out from, the photograph.
