Puppet of yourself, a photo from Buenos Aires, South

Photographer's Note

This puppet it the result of a great artisan work. Incredibly, the puppet is a joke of himself. Is really sad he doesn't want to appear in the picture next to his "art piece" to testimony that!.
The puppet clothes are tipical of a "Gaucho Gringo", of the mesopotamic region of the countrie (north-east of Argentina). A strange mix exist, where a important Ucranian colony lives and works since ending of 19th Century.

Very nice! The puppet seems well-made, but the lighting, clarity, DOF, and framing are all excellent on your part. Good job, even without the maker to compare it to.

Hello Patricio,
This is a very nice portrait photo, thanks to the artist who did not want to appear in your picture :)
I love grotesque figure, masks, puppets and gargoyles. This one is no exception with its meaningfull face, and you took it so lively with a colorful touch. TFS,
Cheers,
Deniz
