'Junior'

'Junior' is a 'street' portrait which somehow I overlooked from my very

first captures years ago. Lighting on the face is entirely natural/no

Photoshop or other image editing. Your ratings and critiques are invited

and most welcome; if you rate harshly or very critically, or would just

Interesting photo

-Els, Netherlands

Can you believe when trolling through one old file, I found this, totally neglected from 5-1/2 years ago, first digital camera, with some totally worthless photos, same kid.

How poor I was in choosing then. I just passed it by.

I'm getting better now not only in shooting but in picking. (And shooting now is getting 'red hot'.

I found it totally interesting, Els, also. Thanks for stopping by to let me know. I still take simple photos now, but a lot of 'more complex' photos now, but they 'seem' simple now.

If you saw the photos this was found in, you'd know why they were passed over, even hardly looked at; but why I did not look at this, I'll continue to wonder. It simply is several times as good as the rest, especially with the lighting; 'noise' is a D-70 at higher (not very high) iso and desaturated. That was their nature.
