Like the sharpness and strong colours against the blurred background. The blurred hand is also a nice capture.

This is great...the cigarette, his expression and the motion blur of lighting a match...you've captured one exciting moment here, Oscar. I also like the background, gives the shot more context as well. This would also work very well in B&W...might want to try it. Good work.

A very expressive portrait of this man, his blue scarf is the eyepuller and in good contrast to his natural colored dark skin with all the texture for his expression, that lightening of his cigarette is a nice and strong addition.
Nicely done and very well placed in the environment with a good DOF, Oscar

j'aime bcp ce close up Oscar! es muy bello! j'aime bcp la façon dont tu as joué de la profondeur de champs et l'opposition entre le premier plan tres net et le fond du paysage encore dans la brume matinale.
C'est splendide!

tres beau portrait, j'aime bien son geste flou et le fond moins net également qui met l'homme en valeur. la couleur de son turban réhausse aussi l'image.

Hola Oscar,
una vez mas tus retratos me sorprenden, aquí has conseguido una nitidez espectacular, que contrasta muy bien con el fondo uniforme del río y la vegetación. Hiciste un buen uso de la luz de la mañana que imprega su cara, y le da un toque mas vivo a su camisa, buen momento para disparar, y bién cogido. También me gusta el movimiento de su mano, antes de encender la cerilla.
Un saludo.
