    Absolutely amazing! I just find it so hard people still have cultures like this. I suppose it's because i'm from one of the five major cities in the U.S.ne_nau.gif

    Nonetheless, this is an amazing shot.

    Now this is a really nice shot... not only does it tell a lot, it's also VERY well photographed and prepared. The highlights and tones are very well controlled.

    Some may say that the highlights are too much and that it was taken in sunlight... but what can you do? It actually tells more of the story that way.

    This is just quite nice.

    Superb sense of character and place. It seems to allude to a bigger story. I like everything about it. Thanks.

    This is just a fantastic shot. Love both the color and BW but can't decide which one I like the most.

    Wow, I love it. I agree, it doesn't fit the typical guidelines for a "good" portrait, but it totally works here. Nice job! thumb.gif
