I found the portraits by Alex Fernandes extraordinary. It was like I stood in front of each subject and they were interacting directly (non-verbally) with only me, as if we were the only two in the room without the photographer. I felt I understood a part of them through the portraits which seem to come to life, transcending the medium it was recorded on. By comparison I am thoroughly bored by painted portraits in museums. I am not a photographer but the angle, light, lens, depth, filter, seemed outstanding.
