I took this image at a place called Sanctuary of Truth not far from where I live. I love the place..it reminds me of a house from Lemony Snicket. The idea behind the place is very moving and the craftsmanship that goes into it is wonderful.
This man is one of the artists that works on the place. I don't know his story, but he moved me.

This picture is haunting. The contrast of the skinny legs against the white shirt, the position he's sitting in, the concentration... everything here makes me want to hear his story. Great job.
I am sure this is a miracle artisan, but I did not find this image to be all that attractive. It just looks too weird. Your contrast is very good, and the details of the clothing is exceptional. The foreground detail is also very well done.
