Faces from the Desert 1

He caught my attention, i asked for a photo and he nodded smilingly.

Cooments/ Critique/ Ratings welcome!

Wonderful

Very good intense portrait. Great colours!

Beautiful work, Umair!

This is very skilled portrait, straightly comparable to the famous National Geographic cover-photo of the Afghan girl. I like every element of the photo itself. I also enjoy the framing and the lower text, but somehow the upper text irritates, as if it didn`t suit to the overall atmosphere of the image. But, high ratings and raving applauds for this one.

I am grateful for the kind comments. About text; yes, I knew it didn't go with the portrait, yet there are things that compell you to leave them as they are, without much consideration. I wanted to do something about it, but it translated my recent wanerings in the desert, on foot, several hours each day in tempratures exceeding 38C. regards!

Wonderful portrait!! The colors are fabulous.

Very good portrait, Umair. I like the colours and his personality captured in this image.

Great job on this portrait, Umair!
