Description Anyone who has ever seen an asian notices that black seems to be a something of a theme color for them. Here ive met a few people who have perfectly black eyes, absolutely no color difference between pupil and iris, which is kinda cool and kinda strange at the same time. Also im sure you've noticed the hair, its taking some time to get used to it, walking around in crowded areas and the only color you see in someone’s hair is either white from age or insane red or blond dye jobs.

Anyho, as im blabbering on and on, here is a kido, typical chinese pre adolescent male (who apparently is one of my cousins but who knows, here everyone is your brother, sister or cousin...) with those strange black eyes. Yes I know...b/w, how can you tell (shot it that way) but notice the lack of color difference.

and while im at it, so many people here wear black....something about that professional mentality I guess.

Wow, just wow, this is a beautiful shot. Black hair, black eyes, they are the majority of the planets population, but they are beautiful. This honestly makes me wish I had black, not brown/red hair, but all the same, your cousin looks rather innocent. Wonder what he looks like now?

A very nice portrait - clean and simple. What I enjoy the most are the people caught in the background - outside of the capture this seems like a busy street, lots of noise, commotion etc. But you've frozen that to a single moment in time - everything is silenced, hence the simplicity I mentioned earlier.

Nice soft lighting - the set-up for this is perfect

That's a very interesting observation.

I had a very different experience while I was overseas, Seems everyone have highlights in their hair. Even men.

I don't know, I still like black hair better.

I had an art teacher in middle school with one normal brown eye, and the other one was all black like this. Such a cute kid ^__^ Nice shot.
