at first glance the expression on his face evokes concern for his old age and frailty and then on looking longer HIS personality takes over, the flow of warmth, empathy,gentleness, goodwill and understanding from the monk to the photographer. A very appealing and excellent shot reminding us that old age has it's strength.cathyadriana lissandrini 09/10/2014 19:04
Un ritratto davvero eccellente, dall'espressione intensa, scolpito dalle molto ben dosate luci ed ombre, la qualità della foto e del b/n sono superlative, come sempre...un carissimo saluto Alexander
