Hi Abmdsudi
hahaha, you need to look at the GALLEY page of new posts, your photo and mine are side by side and they compliment each other so well - please take a look :) these photos with women wearing the head gear are just so photogenic. everything I like about this scene, the bg wood wall, the red shirt, the blue head dress, her sideways glance. beautiful. cheers

This woman seems to be immersed in thoughts and I think that these thoughts are not optimistic, good woman's portrait

Hi dear Abmdsudi YTH

Wow a Toraja tribe lady in Rantepao!
Great portrait as your masterful field.
Her profiel is so stunning and vacant space at right is so touchy and meaningful.

All the best and have a good day! Takero

Hello Abmdsudi,
This side portrait is really well composed, you placed the lady very well at left while she was looking towards the right. The red and blue stands out so well from the darker backdrop. The expression of her face was also so clearly captured. Great job.

Bonjour, cher Abmdsudi,
Vous avez une façon de dresser un portrait qui surprend toujours autant.
la beauté de l'image, la valorisation du personnage.
Enfin, tout y est !
Amitiés.

Hi Abmdsudi.
As always the portraits are your forte and you always capture a special realism, here the woman seems abstracted, as if looking at something far away, the red color of her shirt and the blue of the handkerchief give a nice chromaticism.
Good brightness management and superb sharpness.
Very well done. My congratulations.
All the best and have a good start to the week.
Luis.

Hi

perfect portrait in situation in the dim light. I would have enlarged the vision by not cutting her hands.
Cheers

Ciao Abmdsudi,

A superb head and shoulders portrait of the pensive old lady at left. The blue and red colours add a nice warm cold colour contrast. Nice use of a shallow dof. Tfs!
