I like the look on her face

This is a respectful image.
Some sharpening and removing of the distractions in my view would greatly improve the shot .
Rui Pires  This is documentary photography, so no allowed any kind of edition. Thanks, Reza.

Rui
what I admire so much in Your work is less the documentary aspect. You are praised by right for that, and its great. But it is the romantic, You achieve to combine to reality without becoming clichee. Your images do have a powerful "language", due to Your compositon. Wonderful to look at
Christoph
Rui Pires  Thank you, Christoph. Sebastiao Salgado sayd once : "The picture is not made by the photographer, the picture is more good or less good in function of the relationship that you have with the people you photograph" . I love talk with this people, they are all my good friends :)
Christoph Hessel  Rui,
and exacrly that is, what here is to be seen. You are close to this people, You capture, without constraining. In my eyes, your photography shows, that Saldo is right, but has underevaluated one aspect. The picture represents the way the photographer sees and feels tha world.
Your positive way, Your feelings for a rural, but more originally, natural way of life,are to be felt in this images. That is their power in my eyes.
