This doesn't do it for me. Nothing exciting about the composition or lighting. I would do some focal contrast enhancement and the right side is way too dark. Needs, not a touch, tad, or whisker, of increased brightness, but a lot of increased brightness. And the wall next to the person's right side is way too bright. Needs burning. Did you spend any time with this image before posting. Have you printed it?

a bit of separation of her face is a good thought but not a lot, I am not sure about the very heavy toning. this has some enormous potential and i think your almost there nice one.

Heiii!!! I really like this photo.
The sephia tone feels really fit for this photo. Really feels old, which fit with the subject (I meant it as a compliment).
I Assume that the tone is post-processing?

Reasonably good capture Vidau although I find the sepia effect a little bit overcooked.

Yeah, probably sounds confusing; it's just another way of saying something is overdone or overused. Still a good image though.Thank you Tusk, I thought that only food can be overcooked

Certainly a captivating image. The tonal range, where not interrupted by the change in genre, speaks for itself. The subject, does not need an assist. Marginalized societies don't need a pinhole approach to documentation. This photo would have been best left in journalism, in black & white and without the vignette. Then it would have been riveting.
So, how about some current photos of indigenous folks in our dear neighbor country from the South?

Thank you Abiquiuense, maybe my tastes demerit the photo, the original is scanned color film with low quality.Certainly a captivating image.

I do not like it, it is a cliché very much helped by foreign photographers and some Mexican photographers recognized worldwide as Alvarez Bravo.
Thanks for that "dear neighbor" . For the expressions of your president and the promised wall I suppose there are few Americans who think like you

Then, definitely a lateral genre, and upscale on IQ.

A few of us, estadounidenses, deposit $27.00 in a special account dedicated to uprooting injustice, every once in a while. Meh (mientras tanto . . .)I do not like it, it is a cliché very much helped by foreign photographers and some Mexican photographers recognized worldwide as Alvarez Bravo.

I happen to like sepia. It's either black or white, and then there is "acafetadito." I left a "New Mexico Wall," nearby, in another forum on black and white, moments ago. Pleased if you'd peruse.
