I see from the comments you've already received that I'm going to be the first to dissent on the artistic and technical merit of this picture.

The man has a very interesting expression Joao - in a cinematic kind of way - and it gives a certain mystery to the shot. The girl however is just plain odd - so odd that she ruins it for me. The picture needs a slightly tighter crop too - I'd take out the black space at the right almost up to the girl's shoulder and I'd probably take out about half of the black space over the man's head.

Hope I didn't ruin your appetite,
Regards,
D

This picture is the true moment (the instant) ,when the time stops and we only feel the shot of the Nikon.Otherwaise you took this picture some years ago ,we can see it by the suit of the bodygard and it gives to the foto a serious place in fotojornalism.By the end this foto was taken in a special moment of Azorian Religion, the festivities of St Cristo dos milagres that is several emotive for most of themselfes and this foto as the hability in giving to us all these properties.Keep on your good work.

Hi Joćo,

Wow, this photo's title really defines it well. This child may have a strange look but I won't comment on that because the man might not like it!

I like the black background and composition.

Best regards,
Kes

Anson Moye   {K:3480} 4/20/2006
A very tense moment, judging from the sterness of both the man and the girl. Neither wanted you there, Jo, and responded similarly. Dark background lends an atmosphere of foreboding. Something bad could have happened here. Great shot, Jo. Your friend, Anson.

Well, first of all, Joćo, this is a terrific capture and a terrific portrait. The composition of the people on the diagonal is super, the black and white tones are super, and the graininess is super.
It's not absolutely necessary, but I think that if you trim a little off the top, it would increase the dramatic impact on a photo that already has tremendous dramatic impact. Example below.
Best regards,
Steve

brilliant composition! Perfectly straight, and having framed the man against the wall...making that the edge of frame is very nice!!

The expression on the girl is interesting, and clouds the power of the overall image, but well captured!

real film paid off here my friend!! *very* nice job!

cheers,

He looks a bit suspicious, and that“s exactly what a bodyguard should do ;-) I like the composition and toning. The only thing I“d change is to crop off a tad at the top, but that“s just my personal preference ...

I keep on expecting to hear a voice over narrative for this. After watching Lucky number Slevin this paring of a young person with someone who looks almost like a hit man, is poetic. Really nice black and white, the clarity really let's his personality come thru.

I see the expression on this bodyguard, maybe wondering why Jo is taking picture of him, I think he doesn't like the idea of him being photograph. good capture of this man and the girl on a dark background, putting more focus on them..
