Description
APO, PS3
Hoping that the viewer sees a social commentary.
(Technical aspect) This is one of those images where the shape and pattern is straight out of APO, postwork done only to the colour - hue and saturation.
Had considered "correcting" some of the errant hairs and debris in postwork, but left it be...
When reduced down in resolution, to post to the web, used a little sharpening, to restore it to the way it looked when at full size.
Appreciate your taking the time to take a look, hewsan

Just AWESOME! The color, depth, composition are all just wonderful. And yes, your title does seem fitting for our world sometimes, unfortunately. Thanks for posting this one!!
Exquisite! This is a marvelous portrait.
Hi Hewsan, great to see you posting! Very nice presentation!
Excellent flame! Cool texture and turbulence as befits the title. Nice one, Hew!
Does have the feeling of cold wind. Good job!
I can feel he cold and the wind, your portrait of the homeless man talks diectly to my heart.
I don't see the man so well in this, but I can definitely see the effects of the wind. I imagine he is huddled over, holding his coat tightly against himself.
