Uma foto excelente com muitos promenores. A expressao do homem com ar de paciencia e amor a sua arte. A foto parece me um pouco inclinada, e preferia ver os dois pes, mas nada de maior. Gosot muito das madeiras a esquerda.

I always think that you can shot a good portret whent the caracter is feeling comforable. This is his work, this is his "office", he is doing this for decades....this is a good portret because it really reveals the man work, his tols, his entire life

Respect Jao

This craftsman is really into his work. He looks like he is seeking perfection. An excellent capture of a fine art that is slowly disappearing. DOF and Colors are great. Nice photo.
