Photographer’s Note
A walk in the market of Gonder
with no aim
other than just looking around
in search of moods,
of flavours,
of smiles...

Hi Luca
It amaze me, because each time, the faces you have chosen to photograph could have attracted me as well...
Here, the shades of blue are in harmony with her expression in between... the smile not yet blossomed, half in comtemplation, half in wait. She is graceful and, althought she looks shy and vulnerable, the connection with you, yet undefined, appears strong. A beautiful portrait!
Regards,
Marine

Un ritratto di alta classe come tuo solito.
Luce morbida, espressione intensa.
Sei bravissimo a mettere a loro agio i soggetti.
Ciao Stefano
