    ethnic mask

    This caught my eye while I was at the Folklife festival in Seattle.

    Seems to need some straightening. Interesting mask.

    Re: ethnic mask

    Seems to have potential, but... not sure as it.

    I'd up the contrast a little and sharpen it.

    I like the design of the main cloth, but the other cloths on the right seem to make it busy. The mask itself is a worthy subject, but again it's a little soft.

    Perhaps the mask is with the wrong background?

    I think that the design in the clothes mimicks the eye brows and wrinkles in the mask. I like it.

    Frog, good placement of the Mask in the frame. I agree that pushing the contrast a bit will help and maybe a bit more sharpening as well. I like this picture.
