Description A lonely boy in a small village in Sudan, the harsh life that these people live due to poverty and the dry tough weather make a young boy like this one have this very unusual tough look that carry lots of emotions and meanings... sadness mixed with determination and anger.... Its like that these children loose their innocence and become adults to adapt to the challenges of their environment and society. 8/4/2010

This shot is really one my very personal favs, hope you like it

I find it a bit to hard to make out his facial expression. It seems a too dark to me.

MahmoudYakut In reply to alban-expressed [2011-01-02 23:55:16 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for letting me know Alban, I have to check it on another monitor, that one is not calibrated anyway. Well, his skin tone was so dark, but at least here i can see fairly the side facing light.

alban-expressed In reply to MahmoudYakut [2011-01-03 00:42:37 +0000 UTC]

I can see the side facing the light, too. But I cannot say that I could read anything in the eyes, as one commentator suggests.

That comment you mean was written about the older version, I have uploaded it to my scrapbook, I would be grateful if you take a look and tell me if you can see the face more clearly, may be my new edit is too dark. Here is the link [link]

No, your new edit is better. The face is more visible.
