Description
Although I realize that portraiture is not very popular on this site (my last upload received by far the lowest number of views & comments in a long time...)I think personally that it is more fun (and also more difficult...) to shot people rather than landscapes or architecture...
"The most difficult thing for me is a portrait. You have to try and put your camera between the skin of a person and his shirt."
Henri Cartier-Bresson (French Photographer, 1908-2004)
I'd like to dedicate this picture to Eileen (elmurray), THE RR Master in portraits, full of character...
Eileen has not uploaded a picture in one month now... I really do hope everything is OK for her...
An excellent skill guide for portrait photography from University of Minnesota :HERE !

Hi Michel, I have noticed too that portraits are not huge on this site. Yours is a fine gift to Eileen as she does wonderful portraits and would recognize the wonderful work you've done here. "the eyes are the windows to the soul..."
An excellent portrait.
Ce portrait est magnifique. Cadrage, luminosité, contraste sont ok. Mais ... pour un portrait il faut une petite profondeur de champ (en général). Donc, le flou sur le mur est pas mal mais la tapisserie à droite (ou quoique ce soit d'autre) choque un peu. Pour un portrait, tout dans la photo doit ramener au portrait, rien ne doit distraire le regard. Je t'invite à regarder quelques portrait de Zacko également.
Great capture portrait erland
Excellent picture. Todd
I find the character portraits to be most popular with me! I love the different looks of people in different lands and cultures. I see this gentleman is not like the others you have done here. His headwear is beautifully done with great care and skill. His clothing matches the stitching and is also well cared for. The portrait is magnificently done. And the dedi is perfect.
superb portrait
Excellently done portrait, Michel! Bravo!!!
I totally agree with you, shooting people is harder than landscapes, I hope some day i can take as good portraits as this one. Excellent picture
wonderful shot of this man.
I love portraits like this! Gorgeous work.
I love portraits. It is extra difficult but I have realy fun and when I capture essence and character of that person I am realy happy. This image is SUPERB. I like his surprise in his eyes :-)
Once again, a stunning portrait! Intense look on the man's face and fascinating details of his clothing!
Another great portrait. Impeccable light and the composition is just perfect
Superb portrait !!!
A superb portrait of this man of the desert. You did capture his essence, Michel. (Apologies for not visiting your gallery in a while.)
magnifique capture,bravo.
This is a great portrait. I love what you bring to this site you are a true artist at what you do. You realy capture the beauty of the people from where you live.
This is wonderful Michel. You have captured the very essence of this Morrocan gentleman. Thank you so much for your wonderful dedication - it means so much to me. Things are very sad for me at the moment and I will e-mail you separately to explain. Hugs and love. Eileenxx

Excellent detailed photography in this portrait - bravo - hugs Jane xx
