You got him. The Marlboro Man of Turkey. Tar on the inside and tar on the outside. A blackened life against a gray world and it shows in the coal glint of his eyes. -Hugh

Merhaba,
This works very well I think. It is an interesting face that tells a story.
The skin tones pop off the screen compared to the grey of the coal dust everywhere.
Nicely Spotted
Cheers

merhaba cem,
what an excellent portrait...
the details are great, the man is so natural...
there is some uncertainty in his eyes, or he simply is so tired of his work at the moment...
cigarette is a superb "catching" element but if it were captured with a snaky smoke it would be even better...
anyway - i like a lot this portrait...
best wishes, j.

Merhaba Hakan,
Adam sigarasından bir fırt çekmiş, tam ağzından çıkarırken kalakalmış. Duman henüz ciğerlerinde, dudaklarının arasından çıkma fırsatı bulamadan birbirinizi yakalamışsınız. Elin duruşu, gözlerin kısılıp kaşların aşağı doğru akıp gitmesi, anın donuşunu pekiştiriyor.
Gözüne sağlık.

Hi Cem
I see you are a portrait photographer, something i am not very good at.
But i like this shot a lot, the dirty fingers and face + the ironic fact of the guy smoking when he finally can breathe real air. (I am a smoker my self and would probably do the same)
Good depth

Merhaba Hakan ! This photo is splendid IMO, so human ; thanks to your book I can understand better the circumstances in which the photos were take (just checked on the net and found many of the photos of this book here), maybe could you add the link to your note (...and also, more of those photos that you took there : amazing place, amazing faces, not easy lives !)
You did such a great job with this project, I'm full of admiration !
Best regards,
Selam ve sevgiler,
Cath.
