  • Himba-tribesman-standing-by-kraal,-Epupa,-Namibia<br /> <br /> Self critique: the tribesman was standing in the shade with bright sunlight behind, so he is not distinct enough from the busy background. The photo would have benefited from flash fill to light up his figure. See version 2 in the original gallery or elsewhere on this site for the application of a digital fill.
  • Himba-tribesman-standing-by-kraal-version-2,-Epupa,-Namibia<br /> <br /> Self critique: Version 2 is an improvement, thanks to the more aggressive use of the Adjustment Brush tool in Adobe Camera Raw 7. Overall, not a bad photo, but wouldn't make it past a final editing cut.

    Excellent portrait! It reminds me of the children in the Amazon who were taking care of younger brothers or sisters.
