Very remarkable work, Alec!

Great subject and expression!

I like the naturality & spontaneity of this portrait. His smile is so happy and withoug guiles.

Nice image Alec. I'm telling you the effects of chewing this stuff can be atrocious.

Yes I know Amar, we use to see a lot of these in 'Little India' segment of Singapore. Now it's hardly seen but still dominant in parts of Indian cities. Ruud, Massimo, Cherlyn thanks for coming.
