This is a great shot! i like how the light is catching on their faces and the composition is outstanding. The only improvent might be to add a little contrast as it seems to have a slight grat cast possibly due to the scanning procces.

Thanks for sharing

Merhaba Izzet,
This is so good!
I like so much the way the boy merges with the sculptures, you've made a very good composition with all that elements.
I like also the bright light reflections.
Well done and thanks for share it.
My best regards,
JM

Bonsoir Izzet
C'est une belle collection de visage. Il y a une belle harminie de couleurs. La lumière aussi est subtile.
Bien vu

Merhaba,
Having the live face next to the carvings is very effective. Image would be too static without it. It is a very good composition as such from an angled pov. I would call it just "faces of Africa". The adjective is redundant as we have the picture. Regards,
Hakan

merhaba izzet bey
öncelikle koyu renk tonlarına sahip heykelciklerin kadrajdaki konumu ve görüntüleri çok etkileyici.ama benim dikkatimi çeken sol köşe arka planda yer alan adamın kompozisyonda müthiş bir gizemli atmosfer yaratması elinize sağlık.
selamlar

I know what you mean, Izzet, I am also tempted to bring carvings, masks, shields, tapestries and opium pipes from any countries I visit.. my home looks like a real bazaar and everytime I struggle against my wife who's fed up with the things I bring back.
Nevertheless I keep on purchasing artcrafts as I still regret that genuine insect eaten Orang Ulu shield my wife prevented me to buy in Borneo.
Perhaps those things retain more of the country than my photos.

Enfes bir kompozisyon.. Sert gün ışığında zenci fotoğrafı çekmenin nnasıl farklı ve beklenenin dışında neticeler verdiğini çok iyi bilen biri :) olarak... bu karenin kıymetini çok iyi anlıyorum...

Satıcı masklarıyla birlikte olağanüstü bir uyum oluşturmuş. Hatta yüz ifadeleri dahi neredeyse aynı. Sıradışı ve bir o kadar da esrarlı bir fotoğraf...
