    Whoa! That is awesome! Did you get a chance to talk to him?

    I get the feeling from the photo, that he cares about the election and who will be in charge next [hands], but at the same time is scared and weerie of who will be in charge [face].

    I like it! thumb.gif

    Beautiful portrait! Very captivating!!!

    As a side note, it should be "Who's next for us?" as in "Who is"... :D

    Gorgeous!

    Beautiful portrait, Awais. To be able to reach someone like that shows how you must be able to have an instant connection with people -- not always an easy task when you are photographing. I'm so glad you are here sharing with us.

    Thanks
    The conditions these people live in are totaly insane i was really disturbed to see. Everytime people like him see photographer with camera they take him as saviour as he will report their conditions to world and government but guess what i shot this picture very near to Parliment house of Pakistan. They don't know the reality that they are ignored not unknown.
    This is main reason i shoot such people.

    I believe it takes 1000 good acts to outweigh 1 bad act: the good usually goes unnoticed but people always see the bad. Your photos are very good acts and thank you for sharing them with us, Awais!

    What a fantastic capture, tons of emotions is this capture and a capture you must be proud of.

    Critique:
    Are you able to tone down the post process to get back the definition of his pupils and his Iris. Right now since these items have no defined pupil, he looks almost soulless. Maybe you were going for this effect.

    No matter what you do, this picture is very good and I enjoyed viewing it.

    Well you are great at taking pictures:D

    Do you have the original still?? You can use the original to mask in the iris and pupil back in and use that layer to adjust to your taste but it does take more then basic PS knowledge for it to look natural.

    I will get right back to youmwink.gif
