Dominick- Good evening my friend. What makes your work so interesting is the story behind the picture. I am impressed with both and find them so moving. The story tells of the plight of people and what they deal with on a daily basis.
The photo itself is sensational.Lighting that is brilliant. The picutre is so clear and sharp. Color that are vibrant and dazzling. Textures brought out so well. Details that define each part of the picture with exactness.
Impressive work with both the photo and the story behind it.
Have yourself a most wonderful night, may tomorrow be filled with joy.
Take care. #5888451
