Hi Luca,
I love the vibrancy of this shot... you've got it both in this guy's smile and the colours of the rope. The light is great too, which really helps make the whole scene a lot more striking.
Wow... just spotted this is from 1995! You've done an amazing job with the scan! Brilliant.

Hello Luca,

Nothing new and I just agree with Lewis, you got both the Colors and the expression of the guy perfectly here. The yellow is so rich here.

Hi Luca

Your picture is showing very well the effect of the stuff. The expression of the mans face is great. There is no association with junks and addiction; the man is very well dressed and looks rather prosperous. It is more like an add for quat because he's holding the product responsible for his eufory to show it the watcher. And he's doing that in a situation that is colourful and yet 'of the common people'.
Very good work.
Thanks and regards, Gerrit

Luca,
Great potrait the strong colours, and the expression and smile on his face looks very genuine. Great light i love the two contrasting parts of the photo the bright foreground and the dim mysterious background.
Great shot.

Hi Luca
What a cheeky grin on his face and look in his eye. Lovely vibrant colours of the ropes and excellent light. Well composed.

Excellent ce visage...il me fait rire ;)
Les cordes très colorées qui encadre l'image c'est superbe.
Tu as réussi à garder du détails à l'intérieur malgré la faible lumière...joli.
Belle prise.
