A couple from the Anse De Mai Young Dancers. Keeping culture alive; celebrating 10 years.
Amateur Photographer: Marlon Alexander
Photographers – novice, amateur or professional – in Dominica are asked to submit photos, photographer credit and caption to [email protected] for consideration for the Photo of the Day feature, daily on dominicanewsonline.com or news.dm.
Submissions can be accompanied by a brief profile and contact information of the photographer. Submissions will be published in the order they were received.
Photos must be taken of Dominicans and things Dominican. Note that submissions advertising any form of business or business activity will not be published.
dominican allu need to shut the heck up if allu dont have anything positve to say, it doesnt matter whether the people’s eyes are red or the pic is not a full bodied one. at least Marlon tried ..if u dont like the pic then why dont u go take abetter one? But no, you just wana sit on your lazy backside and just give negative criticism…(“its a nonsense photo,” “it’s stupid.”) stuuuuuuuuuuuupes people GET A DAMN LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!! good job Marlon Alexander and dont let people’s negativity hold u back
Allu wonder why Dominica is so backward? It is because every time someone suggests arer for improvement, idiots like some of you talk about jealousy. Jealous of what? A picture?
I am very happy when someone points me in the right direction. It means I learn and do better the next time around. I dont take it as a personal slight. Typical Dominican behaviour.
If you go to the market and you complain about the price or the quality of the produce, instead of handling the complaint, they ready to jump down your throat. It’s like how dare you say anything.
Our people are unbelievable in their ignorance.
@lovely: Well said.
lol so a man take a pic with his camera that use a technique to take multiple shots and stick them together to make a panoramic view and people make a big deal about photo editing. Now people coming and talk about use photo editing software to remove red eye. u really cannot please dominicans. most of those negative comments are from people who are just jealous that the photo thats there is not theirs or not of them. dominicans does grudge people too much!
nice photo btw considering that is was taken by one of the people in the picture
@gaynpround: u just have to reach on people mother!!! well if u wanna reach on people mum think of urs….cause u breaking her heart by ur lifestyle…she might not say nothing but when she sleeps at night she cries over the fact that u won’t bring her a grand child!!
I liked the pic since from his fbk. All those who are giving negative comments, have your contributed photos to DNO?
@WTF: If you think there is a better pic… submit one. If you dont like something, change it. If u cant change it, change the way u think about it!!! Its time that we stop this nonsensical thinking.
@gaynpround: Gaynproud, you are so freaking negative! Everytime I read through comments on any given subject, I have NEVER once heard you say something positive…do you feel that you have something to PROVE by being gay??? Keep your retarded, ignorant and bashing comments to yourself. You just sound like a miserable person to be around and I can’t imagine you having any friends. If this is the kinda trash that comes from your mouth when you speak, then I even feel sorry for you
I MEAN COME ON!!! PLEASE ARE U SERIOUS???
Boidieu ! All you DOminica not good ! I is an amatuer photo not a professional photoshoot. Maybe all your moder should have come and take it instead! whooy all you Dominicans not good!
this is a beautyfull pic love it y put negative comments when the youths them are their to put intertainement for yall to enjoy honor them as we honour ourself encourage them to b better n not dislike them we are living as 1
I think those who feel it is such a bad picture should themselves try a shot one day rather than
sit and criticise those who make an effort. Mason don’t let those “dummies” deter you. Keep improving yourself and next time make a short clip of the best BELLEH dancers in Dominica.
Well said JAH SON.
stick a sock in it ,if the young man was arrested for smoking ganja and the girl for peddling coke
it would be a neg talk about the youth. now they took a photo, its posted on D.N.O ,some people still have a problem. Is it jelousy or wickedness.or badly trained potty boys always complaining?
the caption says ‘amateur photographer’ people!!!…give the guy a break,
…i suspect DNO wanted to put up a cultural photo for the creole week dere and didn’t had much of a choice, lol…I’m just sayin
ohhhh their eyes
thats really not a good pic to be named as pic of the day
photo of the day?you people gotz to be kidding me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A Red eyes photo which only signs of culture is a creole tie?
I Agree. IT SHOULD BE A FULL BODY PHOTO WITH NO RED EYES,!!!!!!!!!!!!
There is nothing wrong with the photo. DNO clearly states that photos of DOMINICANS AND DOMINICAN THINGS can be submitted…no other special requirements. A photo doesn’t have to be professionally done or to everyone’s personal taste to be beautiful. Photos capture moments in time and these two young persons were sharing a beautiful moment. To those commenting on the red-eye…leave it alone…that’s what the moment captured. At that moment, they did not have special editing software. So it’s not a full body shot…BIG DEAL!!! Focus on the pleasant look in their eyes or how happy and at peace they seem. Stop being so negative. They were kind enough to share their photo with us. This is their moment … it’s their photo…and I love it!
Nice photo
Regardless of all the negative comments.
nice pic dwyike u guys look great
Great picture,
You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.
Stop all the negative comments,
Nice photo bro!!
Not a nice photo at all…and it looks a like he took the shot himself…does not show much of the cultural attire
atto style: Rubbishhhhhhh
Photo of the Day? Is DNO serious. I mean come on man. That’s a horrible pic. I dont see how that would make photo of the day.
Marlon and others who shoot pictures. Bofore you post it, take a closer look at see where you can improve on it. For example, there are many photo editing software that you can employ to remove the red eyes on the couple. Simple things like this can do wonders for a picture.
looking gd marlon.. all the best to u in life
@.: Sometimes I wonder if we as a people really reflect of think before we utter certain crap… Your distain for the picture does not make it stupid. Its high time we begin to consider how powerful words can be, both negatively and positively. A more appropriate comment would be something to the extent that, if this picture was a full shot, rather than a head shot it would have been better because it would capture the beauty of the national wear… However, to call the picture stupid is not necessary and does not offer any help to the photographer… Its about time we begin to help each other and not bring them down unnecessarily…
i agree…..nonsense photo
That picture stupid. I don’t like it at all, it should have been a full body shot, so you could have seen the cultural outfit.
nice couple
