karolostrivizas 2 Posted December 14, 2010 GREECE - CRETE – KRASI ..........I met this man a frozen morning in the plateau of Lasithi in the beautiful Greek island of Crete.......... He was leaving his village very early to go to tend his sheep.......... As he told me, his woolen hat was made by his wife, in order to keep him warm in the severe snowy whether of the plateau.......... PS: Any kind of critique is much appreciated. ………. Please, full screen view is recommended. Link to comment

felixphoto 0 Posted December 15, 2010 The eye contact at your portraits is wonderful. This expression is not an exception. Great light and terrific skin texture while the look of the stockman reveals a lot from his character. The b/g definition is usually perfectly defined. Congrats for another outstanding portraiture work, my friend! Link to comment
