That is awesome. The depth protrayed by the out of focus hand in front and the blurred figure in the background, plus the intensity in his eyes, are stunning. I can't wait to see more of your East Timor shots.

Hi Joel,

His pose is marvelous! Looks like Bruce Lee ;) I love his good, colored sharp face and eyes, but also blurring hands and backgrounds. You photographed very well. Congratulations.

Best Regards,

Parbo

Hi Joel, great composition, I like the shallow DOF. The hand coming at us really makes the shot. Thanks for sharing!

Great image! i love the intensity in the boy's eyes. The lighting is superb and brings out the sking tones, and the sand. this must have been quite an experience, congratulations and I hope to see more like this.

Briliant shot - an original and interesting pose, with so much clear detail captured - for example the sand and elastics.
Lovely time of day you went out to shoot this.
regards.

Shutter speed should have been high. Seems that the outer parts are out of focus. However the idea is good.

Olá Joel
Pois. Já dei uma vista de olhos ao teu portfolio e à tua página...
Fantástico trabalho. Assim sim. Muitos parabéns!!!
Esta foto para variar está excelente, suponho que com uma focagem manual muito trabalhosa...
Um contraste e uma definição.....

Olá Joel,
Outro belo e forte trabalho. Gostei da forma como trabalhastes o foco de forma precisa nos olhos do garoto.A luz também é um ponto a destacar.
Saudações,

Forgive me Joel...I found your excuse for posting your wonderful images in such small sizes as a quite silly one.
What..?
You're punishing US, because someone there, on the world web copied your picture..????
You act like funky ballerina...Don't do it buddy...
Your images are of a grandioso scale stuff ...Hit us hard on the same scale.
Water mark is more than enough to protect your photos...
Their size belong to us…The viewers…
The one and ONLY reason you've posted these beauties of yours on TE…
US !!!! ME !!!!!!

Good are your photographs.
And if something's good.. I want more of it…Not less of it.
