Hi Al,

I really like the exaggerated off center composition created by this extreme crop. Not to ention its a great situation and full of fantastic colors.

C'est une photo superbe. La pose du garçon, avec son sourire invitant, les couleurs superbes, dont le dégradé du sombre au plus clair mène au sujet excentré. Et la composition, coupée juste au dessus des yeux, sur laquelle je me suis interrogé au départ, mais qui est vraiment très bonne. Un grand bravo,
Yannick

Bonjour Al.

Having the same pattern as the last one I saw, giving a great place to the texture of the wall.
Unusual crop - [I'm not sure about the top framing, a bit too tight?] - but definately a very attractive one...

Bonjour, Al. Voilà un cadrage bien original qui enplus présente un joil dégradé dans les tons ocre. Le sourire du gamin vient éclairer le tout. J'aime beaucoup.

juste le petit regret que Saïd est le haut de la tête coupée

Lovely framing Al - reminds me of a calendar format that Oxfam used - good colour to set off the boy and his character shines beautifully through your well caught expression - a really lovely image.

best wishes Kev

Salut Al,
Tres ex-centrique dans le sens propre du mot, avec des couleurs splendides. Ca repliue assez bien un excran de cinema!
J'aime beaucoup.
Bien joue...

Hi Al, What a wonderful and happy portrait! I very much like the framing and the tight crop. The expression on this boys face is very engaging. The colours are splendid. I feel this image really belongs to a Unicef advertisement/calendar. Fantastic work! Sabine

Bonjour Al,
Très beau travail. La texture du fond, la pause du sujet tout est parfait. Surtout le cadrage serré qui se concentre sur la position des bras et le regard. Il faut oser couper et faire des formats qui sortent de l'habitude. Bravo. Dans mes favoris.

Nice shot. Very simple but alluring. You got a great expression on the boy's face and snapped it at just the right time. Have you done any other postprocessing? It seems to have an artistic graininess to it.

Hello Alain, interesting horizontal framing .... very artistic, the texture of the wall and the expression of the boy are the best of the composition, the light also is excellent.

Congratulations friend and thank you.
