The "good" face seems to pop out of hin air in your sharp, sharp shot, Swiatek, and the clown left laughing in the bokeh zone. Great double portrait with superb colors, as always.
Best,
Francis

Another one of your gems from Africa. Here the use of wide straight on her face, with the 'naughty' one's smile in the background, the symmetry of the photo around this shrouded serious face, ang the vibrant but superbly tasteful color, all make up to a striking photo.
Regards,
Animesh

Another stunning shot, Swiatek, both the obvious and also that INCREDIBLE triangularization of the elements here, ah, that is just the cherry on this delicious Nigerian cake.

Hi Swiatek

Nice double portrait. Full of expression. Great bg. Very sharp. Good documentary style image. Well done.

Yet another masterpiece by nygus. Leaving huge space for interpretation. The one that remains on viewer's mind for a long time. A real open-minder

Congratulations - Marcin.

An interesting photo from an interesting, yet rarely visited country. I would love to go there one day!

You've got it all right on this portrait: the curious subject, the background, the composition. The innovative POV for your model and the expression on her face. I like this photo a lot - not least because it comes from a rare location.

Pozdrowienia
