Hello Valter,
I like this portrait very much beacause of the way you have framed the face already framed by the vividly coloured scarf. The clarity is stunning and the textures incredibly tangible and real. The glint in the man's eyes is a powerful touch of vividness. It's as though he's standing there breathing before us and he looks so friendly. I admire the way you've gained the trust and confidence written in his face.
All the best,
Ourania

Hello Valter,
This man has a nice smile and the tightly cropped portrait is very well taken. The light is good and the sharpness excellent. Judging from how carefully he has wrapped the shawl around his head it must have been very cold, maybe less than 20°C :-)
Regards,
Gert

Ciao Valter,
Wow! What a portrait! This man's face just jumps out of the screen, his eyes penetrating my soul!
The close cropping of his face and the closeness of you to him when you took it means that his face is essentially life-size on my monitor, almost as though he is standing only two feet from me.
A wonderful expression on his face, fabulous sharpness and detail and excellent true colours. The framing of his face with the thick scarf is lovely and really adds to the appeal of this wonderful photograph.
Fabulous!
Kind Regards,
John.

Ciao Valter,splendido ritratto!
Espressione del volto, luce, colori e dettaglio ne fanno una foto degna di nat-geo.
Potrebbe sembrare facile fotografare le persone, ma non lo è per niente, io ad esempio non ne sono capace.
Complimenti ancora!
Ciao

Carissimo Valter
Un ritratto formidabile. Prenda corragio da fare una foto cosi "vicino"al tuo soggetto. Sarei troppo timida, ma ammirarlo molto. Eccellente i colori, la nitidezza e la luce. Il contatto dagli occhi fa un grande impressione. Complimenti, e'un capolavoro.
Un caro saluto

Hello Valter. An interesting portrait. The close proximity is impressive. You can see every pore. Looking directly at the camera like it very much. Also I like the naturalness of the portrait. Well done. Rgds, Wolfgang.

Hello Valter,
I like the expression on his face. Looks like a very friendly man. The close up looks good showing the details of his face. The picture looks very elegant with the colored muffler wrapped around his head. Must be a cold day. Well compose with sharpness and colors.

Ciao Valter, Bellissimo sto ritratto, colori naturali, sharp che si puo' contare bene tutti i peli nei baffi ;) e penso che forse si vede anche il fotografo nei occhi. Bravo, un bel closeup, mi piace anche "the catchlight" nei occhi. Complimenti
Saluti
