nice job

it puts some things into perspective...
the eyes, the dirt, the natural lighting, and other things sparked more feeling and interest for me than the run of the mill "model" shoots. for me you took this forum from material to real.

:thumbsup:

Not just the post process skills are good but also the way he projects those children has a powerful message in it. As you can see, we do not need a super camera with super wide aperture lenses to make an impactful shot.

Personally I like the 1st photo a lot. Really good on how you control the sun beam on his hands!

This are the young kids in Phillipines which the young Singaporeans will never know how it's like to live in poverty and slum.

PP = Post Processing
PS = PhotoShop

Thank you all Guys for the comments, the PP outcome was only an experiment.

Layer masking, overlay then opacity adjustments for overall images. For the eyes, selective shadows and highlights.
