Hi Manny!

Ahha, I was actually at your site earlier today showing my Sister and she ended up looking at your photos hours on end! This is one that we came across while thoroughly admiring your talent, and we both absolutely adored this one in particular.
As I have posted before (on one of your other photos post here on TL), you inspire me to keep saving for the Nikon D200. It's hard when you're my age and your parents don't really encourage you to get a job because you're only 15 to actually raise the money, but persistance is the key, right? :P
Anyways, this is a phenominal photo, as usual. You have a unique technique that adds some sort of peace to your photos, and I don't know what it is, but you sure are good!
Thanks for another fantastic photo to look at!

Best regards,
~Hannah C

Gorgeous Manny, and very artistic. I also find it rather original, but my culture is rather limited in matters portraiture. Did you use any softening during post-processing, or is it all in the lens? A different type of image from you and I like it a lot.

Haha - every time I start to feel smug about my shots, I see one of yours and it challenges me all over again.
This is just outstanding work.
The shadow over her eyes and the mesh of the veil are fantastic details, the colour match of lipstick and necklace are consistent with your "colour theme" approach to photography - it's a trademark that works very well.
If I had one criticism, it is the cropped beads at the bottom, I wish they were included in full, but it's a tiny detail - this is a great shot!

Hi Manuel

Aptly titled photo. This certainly does have a sophistication which I find appealing. Excellent exposure and DOF used.

Well done and TFS.

Precioso detalle, Manuel, los rojos son muy intensos y la composición es muy acertada, asi nos centramos en los labios, el negro y el rojo y un rostro por descubrir. Buen trabajo. Un saludo, Sara.

Great shot, I absolutely love the DOF. It sets the shot off so nicely. I like so many of your shots, but this one takes the cake so far.
As always, thanks for sharing.
