This set is going to be a little subjective. I suppose all of them are in a way but this one more than most. That’s because the sparkle in someone’s eye is really easy to see in life but harder in a photograph. I’ve chosen many of today’s faces based on memory rather than looking at the image itself. That’s absolutely fine with me though; and since this is my project that makes it A-OK. I hope you’ll enjoy the pictures and can see the sparkles. All of them are from 1000faces 3. (Speaking of which, I am only 15 photographs away from 3000 and starting the next set!)
We are so many and so different people all over the world, but smile remains the same on everybody’s face 🙂 nice
It’s true. A few years ago I started a project on Flickr to try to get people to post photos from all over the world to show how similar we are. It was before I started photographing faces the way I do now. But what you say is true, the smile is a universal – and wonderful – element of being human.
