This is my favourite in this gallery the portrait caught my eyes especially the colour, it look like it has been colourize or some art work has been done to it. Wonderful portrait.

A stunning portrait. Such experience behind those thoughtful eyes.
Guest 14-Sep-2006 00:13
Hi Chris, this is a special picture that deserves special comment.
I am a firm believer a picture is born in our brain.It is born from a data base of culture, experience, our own way of living.Being so, when one look at a picture get a vision, not that large, but enough to know who is the photographer. But a portrait - not a picture of a face- shows a face a vision of the kind of person his the model, but, at the same time you give part of our soul, doing that portrait.
I an certain, when you look at some of my portraits you already set in an order my models: just known, friends, very close to me.
With this portrait I see him and part pf you.
Need to say it is a master peace, Chris ?
Kind regards
jorge
