This is a cracker Manuel, you've caught a wonderful image of this man.
I could see this in National Geographic!

Perfect.

Added to Fav's :)

beautiful portrait. I think best left with no comment.

It seems,he is smoking rather interesting stuff. And in his eyes you can see that he is addicted to it. For me this portrait looks dramatic, the smoke coming out of the nose makes this effect even stronger!! A great one!

hi Manuel
you have breathed the smoke and you have watched it in the eyes....best

greetings sERGIO

Bonjour Manuel,
very good subject. Very good timing and crop. Maybe need a bit of "level up" to add details but very strong shot anyway. Congratulations!

wonderful portrait, great details!

Wow! Another Nt'l Geo-esque photo. Truly, the word chimney is rather apparent in the photo. On the bad side, I just thought that the eyes are quite strange but since the subject/point of interest is the smoke, it is worth it. JMHO

Now that's a serious amount of smoke! Great capture.

This is a very powerful picture, the wrinkles, the soiled hands the darken teeth, all this portrays the hardship that this man obviously endures to make a living and the smoke is his way of relaxing and enjoying a bit of freetime.
Fantastic Manuel.
Dot

Hi Manny,
Have to agree with Gary...this is national geographic stuff. Superb freeze of the moment..the smoke, the expression, the lines on his face and all. This is so well seen and captured.
