Thanks Izzie !!

That hand in hand shot, is my favorite too :).

Regarding #1... I like this shot very much but might think of using a very subtle vignette to bring more attention to the artist but, not taking much attention away from his creations...

Thanks Richard for your valuable suggestion. I will revised it. :)

These are all great and a fascinating insight into the process.

In terms of which to be used, I would also lose the last one, if you had to, as it doesn't say as much about the process of creation as the others. For the remainders, I would alter their order to tell the story of the process.

#1 A long shot of the chap painting the idol. Shows the enviroment and the artist and sets the scene.
#3 A close up of the same process, to be able to see how it is done.
#5 A long shot of another process (presumably) of sculpting a large idol. Again, gives information about the environment and the artist.
#4 Close up of same process
#2 could go in here, as a sort of calm finale. That is satisfied stance there and might give a sense of "job done". It also shows some of the detail of a finished work, like the ones we saw in progress in the previous, two images.

I enjoyed looking at those. Thanks for sharing them.

Thnx Max :).

Really a nice set. Nice selections for which you used color vs B/W. The fourth shot with the two hands is my fave. Nicely done.
