This image is all about color. Once again, you use a dark background to effectively bring it out with great and incongruous contrast. An excellent portrait, with the color even carrying into the background -- the touch of green in those leaves picks up the green in the cloak, and the blue rag on the ground picks up the blue in the socks. An expressive response as well. One of your strongest portraits, Mo, in term of its impact and expression.
