Challenge: Color on Color (Advanced Editing IV*)
Camera: Nikon D70
Lens: Nikon AF Zoom-Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.0-5.6G
Location: San Miguel De Allende, Mexico
Date: Jul 23, 2006
Galleries: Portraiture, Photojournalism
Date Uploaded: Jul 25, 2006

 Mexican Vendor in San Miguel De Allende, selling dolls on the street corner, snapped a shot of her as she looked up, loved the wrinkles in her face, brought them out with a few layers/filters, hopefully this meets the challenge terms, i felt it was all shades of red which is close enough to \"same color background\", well see, be kind, im not good at this kind of portraiture(im learning to overcome the shy factor in me that keeps me from approaching people like this to take their photograph)

I like the texture, but the skin is way to red. A picture with warm but still fairly natural skin tones would have still fit the challenge and have been a better picture IMO. but, I generally interpet the challenge rules fairly easily and rarely give a DNMC score, so maybe people wouldn't have liked my idea.

the idea is there - and the composition is fine. The image just looks a bit flat.
