You were right, I didn't know this was yours, but you could still see there was a master behind the cammera of this one.

The moment this popped up said wow and hit the 10. Each time I look I want higher numbers to give it. I love the rich colors, contrast, placement, textures (esp the background is outstanding), and the expression shows a depth and hardship of a free spirit. I am really in awe of people who can do portraits, it is a struggle for me to even point the camera at strangers. Would you consider writing up a tutorial for us grovellers? Esp on ways to make people comfortable and be natural?
Thanks so much for your inspiration!
