About A poor farmhand. Although he has all the reason not to smile, I could not get a serious photo of this man - he just would not stop smiling. It lifted my spirit so much, I thought to share it with you all.

Message is certainly inspirational, but the picture in itself is beautiful and emotional. A great portrait.

Thanks for sharing, Joggie! Funny thing ... smiles are so much more easy to find in poor communities. Those teeth could hardly stand out more. Wonderful capture & tones!

A good portrait goes beyond the technical elements, to reveal something of the subject's personality. This image does that in a wonderfully expressive way. Congrats Joggie.

Joggie,

A great message. We all think money and wealth are so important for happiness. Yet sometimes this adds such a burden of pressure on us all.

This man seems unburdened by that pressure of appearances. He is dignified, his conscience is clean.

Great portrait.

A wonderful character study, Joggie. Made me smile just looking at it. To have such inborn joy makes him the richest man in the world. Lovely tones and composition. Cheers, Ann.

What a spectacular portrait. I just love his infectuous smile and I am glad you've captured his happy spirit.

When I look at him and read your comment, I realize how much we have to learn about experiencing the pure joy of being.

Thanks for sharing and for leaving a comment in my portolifo. Cheers, Andree

A stunning portrait, Joggie. You did really well in catching this one, and the exposure is very good as well. Those teeth really make the photo.
