    They are different from the work that you ussually post, but they are all very good. A lot of your work has (to me) a bit of magical quality to it, while these seem more down to earth,

    Thanks for sharing them.

    clap.gifWonderful, as usual. I think you have done well with the low light, and I really love the 3rd one especially. I also love the black and white.

    I love your work Yurithumb.gif

    Although these are different from your normal work, it's easy to see you have a true gift for portraits.

    I don't know how you do it, but you always seem to be able to get the eyes, and a pose that looks not only natural, but give the viewer an insight into the inner person.

    Great stuff!

    Love the first one best....what a shot...such clarity. Like the second one too. Not so fond of the 3rd one, then again, I don't know the person, perhaps you captured her personality.

    Yuri, I want you to ship me several gallons of water from your village because clearly it contains something special.

    I have an idea... here's a special Yuri challenge; go out a find one ugly person! rolleyes1.gif

    Hello Yuri !

    The first picture is the best .
    By far the best !

    Beautiful tones, pretty backlight in the girls hair, and no blown highlights .
    All this, together with the sweetness of your subject make it a masterpiece !

    Bye,
    Peter Dumont
