[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
I spend my weekend in Long Beach, I was walking towards my carr when I saw this sculpture in a African Store, but the sore was close, so i put my camera as close i can in the glass and I took some pictures of this sculptures, for me looks so real and I like the colors, I upload the original y and this in case you want to see it both.
The title is because as many people knows the spanish people brings African to Mexico, because they need a strong people to work for them. They stablished in the south, one of this states was Veracruz they mix with the indigenas and now we are results,in fact my grandfather was half African and half spanish.

I resized, sharp a little, hcange to B&W latter to sephia, I put ir a little blur and center the sephia.

Please feel free to send me your crittics.
Thank you and have a good day

Very interesting work, Elias. He seems almost like a real person, but without the eyes, which make it a misterious image. Nice textures and blur effect, although I allways like to see the original version in WS, when changes are made with pp, just for comparison. This is just a small detail, but I also would like to see the figure more to left of the composition. Well done.
Un saludo,
ricardo

Hola Elias,
Tu historia personal es la historia de los pueblos de Norte América, el resultado de muchas origenes.
You present that history in a misterious way. The blur make it even more misterious.
A very interesting post.

Hello Elias,
Welcome back friend:)
Very interesting and mysterious portrait of a sculpture. The grey colours are in harmony with the help of the blur effect which is good. TFS.
