Kings of Punk

[James Lemon]

They insisted I take their picture and implied that they are kings of punk.

 

[Paul Abbott]

Hey James, i'd like to see this image cropped 1:1 with his in your face face and those hands up, close and personal...

I wouldn't say they're 'kings of punk', very very lightweight 'kings of punk' maybe.
He has 'Irish Punx' tattooed on his hand, you could have told him to 'pogue mahone' at they're implying...

It is a tight crop as it is,but you are welcome the re-edit and post it, to give me a better idea what you mean. Good observation regarding the tattoo.

Well done. Nice DOF and composition.
They look like they are riding a bike but without helmet.

 

[Paul Abbott]

I think the shot is more well balanced and concentrated this way...

Thank you for the feedback Antonio ! These guys are just goofing around standing on the sidewalk.

Thank you Paul ! I definitely like your cropped version do you mind if I use the title ?

I like your image, James. Really nice tonalities in the b&w.

[Paul Abbott]

Hey James, i'm happy you like it...use the title by all means. The words 'pogue mahone' translates as 'kiss my ass'...
If you've ever heard of the irish group The Pogues, you'll know that they're name translates as The Asses...

I've heard that the original name of the band was the Pogue Mahones and either the record label or their management made them change.

But Pogue means to kiss. There is a different Irish punk band called the Mahones (from New York or Canada or something).

Great photo.

 

[Paul Abbott]

Hey Bob, I got it ass about face, sorry...

 

[Martin Stephens]

Nice idea. But two fingers are sharp and two are OOF, and it doesn't settle well because of that. I like the characters though.

Thank you both! I glad you like the image , I appreciate the comments.

Thank you Martin! It appears to me that all four fingers aren't in focus maybe two are just a little sharper.

A Refound Treasure!

James,

This is simply delightful! A lot of fun and entertaining attitude! Very healthy to be a ble to release and let down like this!

... and implied that they are kings of punk.

I beg to differ for this statement - what about him (and others worth mentioning)?

I prefer Pauls's cropped version.

Best regards,
Michael
