Antonio, you create lovely portraits. What do you do with them?

Nothing. I just keep them. It's a pleasure like any other.

However, I expect to be able to make an exposition some day. Who knows ?

Thank you Myra

An exposition would be enjoyable. Have you thought of compiling them into a photo book? Even if it was just for your own pleasure, the profit (after paying for the printing costs) could go to a charity. It just seems like such a shame that they are not being displayed or enjoyed by the subjects.

At the present moment I am sending them on the web for appreciation and eventual publication.

However, there are so may - so many - images on the web with quality that mines are just a drop in the ocean.

I think I do not have enough for a book. I also think that I would not sell the book. I am very pessimist am I not ?

Charity is what is most needed in this country and also in Europe. I say no more

Thank you for commenting again

Yes she was

I would like it better if I could see her hand :chuckle:


Are you burning the face in this shot or are you using light modifiers when you take these? I like the contrast in this one.

Nice one, Antonio, as always. Very nice conversion.

Do you have one where she is not looking into the camera?

Antonio... I keep saying the same thing about your India images: Well Done! BTW: I oftem like a subject looking into the camera in a portrait!

Yes she was when she stopped for a while when I asked her

No. The photo was done with ambient light - large area of sky at left - and no flash, no reflector, nothing.
All the work has been done on processing

Thank you Ali.
I am afraid I don't. I made just two or tree pictures and where she is always looking at me.

These are all Indian portraits Richard, some older than others but all part of a set.
