Absolutely gorgeous! This picture is definitely worth a thousand words. Everyone of them are loud and clear too. I travel and do medical missions and this is the kind of photo I dream of capturing. Bravo!
You are a great photographer and a master of the art of photography. I onlt wish I know you personally to teach me the tricks. Congrats on another win!
As I am from Africa, I hail you as KING OF THE ARTS.
MANNY!!!! my number 1 portrait photographer!! GReat JOB for winning the blue ribbon. Of course you deserved it! Is there an online source I can be directed to for future workshops you're holding in the states Manny??
It's when you break away from the shots of beautiful young women that you're so often recognised for (though they are always very well executed) that your work really shines for me. It's just a personal thing but I feel that shots like these carry so much more emotional weight - the complex expression, the hand that cradles him, the two little flies... A thoroughly deserving blue ribbon.
One truly appreciates the absence of a veil :-) Especially since there are so many of those in India... The fly is the crowning touch here. Congrats on blue.
Let me add own comment of admiration for a photo that captures a whole world of heart strings within the shape of a single expression. You don't need me to tell you that you are The Master!
Thanks a lot everyone. India was an overwhelming exeprience. It's one big stage...wherever you point your camera is worth "freezing". The people are just amazing. So much character and so much colours all over. A must-see place for photographers. You can't go wrong with portraits there.:)
congrats... well deserved!
I didn't vote but did look through all the thumbs and your shot grabbed me right away just from the thumbnail as a ribbon winner.
Manny, dude where ya been? Nice to see you back and in your expected perfect form. What a lovely image and you knew that, didn't you? ;) Congrats, hon.
this photo slowly comes into view. first the face. or first, those eyes, then the face. then the hands round the face, then seeing whose hand is whose. then I see the fly above his eye. and then the last details come into view... another fly... a ring. It's this inability to be seen all at once that makes this photo special.
Three hands? interesting shot nicely done, the three hands made me stop and study the shot. I really like it, it has a lot of stuff to look at especially for a portrait.
JL I assume. The PP work looks fitting. If I am wrong I apologize though.
I wasn't going to vote this Free Study but this deserves a 10 so it will be worth voting.
This is an amazing shot, the tones, crop and detail are perfect.
