I just love the angle of tilt to the head the slant of the eyes and the selective focus you have achieved with this capture. Good skin tones rounds out a very good portrait Cleo.

Awww. Love the softness of the shot, adds to the angelic features of this adorable little boy. Love the way his head is tilted and the sunlight reflecting off his nose. What a beautiful little boy who looks so sad. Thank you for sharing this.

Thank you. I appreciate your generous review very much. Many of the Mayan children have this look and seam mature for their age. I think it is the hard life they are born into.

This is a very traditional effect to centre one focus on the eyes of the portrait. You have really done a great job here its very effective. What character you have manage to capture. Well done. felix

I don't know if I told you this yet or not, Heidi...but your portfolio is getting very strong. I have gone through it again today and am looking at the first images you did. I remember the first one that I reviewed. The beach shot called, "Wind in the Carabbean."
This tells a story big time. Good color and the blurred background is great. You may get some flack for that but not from me.
The subject matter is very well chosen.
If I saw this hanging in a gallery, it would demand my attention for awhile. Great job and I am blown away at your improvement! Scott

Thank you Scott, I appreciate your review very much. A Five Star from you means a lot more than 5 stars.I got some flack for the blurred background but much less than I suspected. All my pictures get very controverse review. A friend said once; "There are only two ways with your pictures: love it our heat it"
I always try to tell a story, truth some are more serious than others.
Thanks again. Heidi

More like glowing beauty. May be this is the glow from the treasure of love he has. You made him look like a baby in the fantasy land with all the glow added by the blur. Nice work. Wonderful and expressive. Thanks for sharing.

This is a beautiful portrait of a young child. I appreciate your brief travelogue, introducing us to the customs of his village. Very nice light, color and composition in this shot. ~RR
