thank you so much for this fine critique,
you are right,I have used the widest angle during capturing this shot,but the LX3 was there and nothing else,and the handle was to far to be noticed,as I have understand from the shot feedback's,
thank you again Mahamed,
my appreciation for this revision,
Saad.

Nice effort, Saad. The grainy effect plus the man's haunted look say a lot about the photo. I have the LX3 too and I think there is an element of distortion here. The man's face seems elongated and the handle of the wheelchair ( I think ) appear to be very far from the man. The LX3 is great for macros ( goes as close as 1 cm ! ) and general photography but IMHO not for headshots. This is the job for teles.

Regards.

You didn't just captured a face of a human being Saad. You captured a soul and strangely enough not a sad one.

Dear Saad, I have found that many people with a physical limit are usually well compensated in another way. Some have mental and senses much keener than a person unlimited by their physical body. The most important part is the connection as humans first in our lives together.
Be well, Stan

Saad Salem Saad Salem   {K:89003} 4/14/2009
thank you so much Gary,this would be a turn over in my presentations,I will change my way,
I thought that the title would make the spectators asks and why the human should have a handle ?
Nick was right,he said the shot should rock,it should be very understandable and clear to do that for all the viewers,and I would adds,not all the the viewers are A.C.Dowel.
and if you didn't asked that,the others also did not,
you are of great help to me,
accept my appreciations,
Saad.

No Saad, I didn't realise she was paraplegic until I read the comments. What I did notice was her face and the emotionality she conveyed

I saw a part of her weal chair Saad and the title was in positive contest presented in my mind ... sad for me, but she looks like a powerful and strong person to me.
So this shot is full of emotions !!!

thank you dear Gary,
I have question to you please,since you are the last to comment in this shot,
did you understand that she is paraplegic,from the title and shot over whole ?
I have done it to show her emotive power and the strange feelings she got,strangely to me no body mentioned that,is it obscure to that degree,or should I change my POV about my presentation ?
my so much regards,and thank you in advance,
Saad.
