glad to know that "film" still exist here..
I found 2 minor dust spots that you might forget to remove them , one is exactly on the center of the photo (on the bush) and the other one is a little bit on the right over two big stones..
and the rest is good as usual.. congrats Rui !
Rui Pires  You have right, and there is much more that 2 but as this is 67 medium format most dust spots is not visible. I must spend some time remove all spots in original file. And yes, more than 80% of my photos here in 1x are "film" :) Thank you !
limawhisky  I am fan of you Rui so I always following whatever you got published in here, some photos that you got published with digital when you were in Morocco. I do understand that is not easy to get publish if we send them fresh from scanner. All the best for you,-

her facial expression is impressive. Experienced, sceptical, but still curious too. Great how You managed the light here.
Christoph
Rui Pires  Not easy light, Christoph. I don´t like take BW photos when have direct hard sun light, but special moments can not wait for ideal light. I compensate developing this one in HC-110 in g dilution, in order have less contrast and more perfect medium grey tones and some definition and detail in shadows. Than you :)

I have been looking around in the photo, but I can't see any goats!?! They must be out of the frame. ;-)

Great portrait of this lady in this fitting rural setting.
Rui Pires  dificult decision, Guido, goats are at right, i choose that rocks and i have with me only the 180mm lense, so impossible to put everything here :) Thank you :)
Andre du Plessis 10 months ago
I sense a harmony between those ancient stacked stones and this elderly lady. Compliments for this choice of composition.
Rui Pires  Thank you, Andre :)
