Artist's Comments

- Can I have 1€? I don't have a mom or daddy to look after me. I don't have a home.
- You can have 10 (everything I had on me:P my girlfriend payed lunch after kicking my ass). Can I take your photo?
- Sure man!
- What's your name? [I noticed the Kaposi lesion on his mouth.]
- Mingos.

Bamm! I don't have a mom or daddy to look after me. This sentence is looping on my mind infinitely. He didn't complain about anything else. His first expression of pain was about the loss of his parents.
I'm hearing my parents playing with my sons as I write this down.
Just remember:
cherish those who love you even if they make you mad at times.

Technical stuff:
taken today. This is not HDR and is one single RAW edited. I am still not totally sure about the outcome, I'll let you be the judge.

I like it. Very nice. And a nice story to go with it. Well done.
:iconchopen:
Wonderful portrait Damien! The emotions are perfectly captured here. Is this edited in Lightroom?

The story is very touching, and his expression really shows sincerity!
I like the processing! Though a bit "dramatic", it looks really good!

Magnifico retrato.

Só quando sabemos de situaçoes dificeis de outras pessoas é que damos valor aquilo que temos. Nao devia de ser assim mas é um facto.

aww that is sad...

as far as the photo goes, i feel like some parts are over done. For example i really like the background, his hat, eyes, and face, but the hair and shoulders almost look painted
