7th Place Cambodian Sisters by Michael Soo by Canon DSLR Challenge


11-MAY-2006	Michael Soo

Two sisters,
Two dirty dresses,
Too poor,
Too sad.

Two smiles,
Two defiant glare,
Two hearts beating,
Two life holding each other.

Because of your inspiration, Michael, I tried to do my own, Sisters, Image...but somewhere I got carried away in the PP...and I couldn't duplicate your skin tones. But then, the Challenges for me often serve as a motivation...I'll give it another shot tomorrow. Thanks again, Traveller

THE Michael Soo? I stopped at this image because of the subtle, almost glowing, colorazation in the the skin tones that add an extra pop to an already powerful image. I actually like this far better than your commerical work, though I am not sure that everyone will study this in the detail that I have. Thanks for posting this. Best Wishes, Traveller
