The original text :

On my way through the southern preserved original Cuban town called Trinidad, i walked pass this fella' once. I looked at him quick and thought.. "Damn - what a portrait!"
But i diden't do anything at first. Later after few hours walk we got back in the car, and just the second my mother started the car, i ran out and over to this man and asked him for his picture.

I paid him enough money for 2 days meals and said "Gracias senΓ³r" and we headed home for the night..

I love this pic, as others you made like "son of cienfuegos"
All those pix are very expressive, by the model of course, but most of all by your sence of "face revelation"

(I hope you'll understand what I'm trying to say
I know my english isn't so perfect! ^^ )

Yes yes, Obtain (since?) yes, the contrast and the color of your photos are incredible. I try to obtain it in my photographies, but I it do not manage this result. Really is great

Thank you very much .. Well - All i can say is allways Shoot in RAW . And use your Canon software to manage them and batch. Work with the details and not "overall everything" if u understand me

I love the shot for what it is, but I almost wish it weren't a close-up; however, the fact that you can see every last wrinkle, hair, pore, etc., makes this man seem all the more interesting. In a way you've immortalized him, and this new technique you speak of does him great justice! And the story makes the photo that much more enjoyable

chilouX In reply to trigness [2008-04-22 10:55:11 +0000 UTC]

Thats make me smile to hear! Im pleased it reach out and touch and inform and not just "another photo" .. !
The wrinkles and the pain this civilization suffers was the reason why i decided to do the entire series in close-up .. First of all because i wanna see em close, and i want them to see me. I could of cause equipped the super scope and scoped them from far distance but it makes it such .. unpersonalized ..But a full frame body shot would be great aswell ur right I just diden't had the nerves to first take the close-up and them ask for another full-body .. I had to be quick

thanks so much for the comments and support much much appreciated!
