They are different from the work that you ussually post, but they are all very good. A lot of your work has (to me) a bit of magical quality to it, while these seem more down to earth,

Thanks for sharing them.

:clapWonderful, as usual. I think you have done well with the low light, and I really love the 3rd one especially. I also love the black and white.

I love your work Yuri:thumb

Although these are different from your normal work, it's easy to see you have a true gift for portraits.

I don't know how you do it, but you always seem to be able to get the eyes, and a pose that looks not only natural, but give the viewer an insight into the inner person.

Great stuff!

Love the first one best....what a shot...such clarity. Like the second one too. Not so fond of the 3rd one, then again, I don't know the person, perhaps you captured her personality.

What the.....???

Yuri, I want you to ship me several gallons of water from your village because clearly it contains something special.

I have an idea... here's a special Yuri challenge; go out a find one ugly person! :rofl

As always, your pictures are fantastic! :thumb

Your critique, please...Hello Yuri !

The first picture is the best .
By far the best !

Beautiful tones, pretty backlight in the girls hair, and no blown highlights .
All this, together with the sweetness of your subject make it a masterpiece !

Bye,
Peter Dumont
