single photos DIRTY FACE

Jacqueline,

While this is a technically excellent photograph, it's much more!  I'm not sure I'm good enough with words to even express it.  Powerful and emotion comes to mind.  Well done!

A couple of thoughts.  You could do a B&W and I for one would automatically assume that this was a very old photo I think.  OK, I wouldn't "now" but I would of ;-)  I looked at the larger view and maybe a tiny bit more could be left on top (if you cropped it) it's so tight there it "appears" that a few hairs are chopped off.

Thanks for sharing!

Great portrait...so much emotion here...you draw me in with his eyes and maintain my attention with all the amazing detail...such a story.  Nice job processing this image too...really like the vignettes...nicely done.
