A Tough Child - ChengChen Lee

His villiage is right beside the glacier, I notice him just because his tough countenance. The Tibitan natural environment and severe life style give him this face - even in such a young age.

Effective

"A Tough Child" is a portriat with uncommon personality. Technically, the image is also pleasing; the narrow DOF creates a wonderful frame for his averted eyes.

agree with jerome,

you have managed to capture a heap of character in the image... I do wonder whether it might be a touch oversharpened? The full size image seems a bit grittier than I'd expect for ASA100.

Thank you

Thank you for your comment. I did sharpen the image to make it look like the real print. The gritty face is because it is a little bit out of DOF and the nature of Agfa APX 100.

Great

This is a great picture. I can almost feel the texture of the clothes.
