Great contest!

Maybe it's not carnival, but the light illuminating the face, the painting and the colors are very intersting. The mood of the gestures are reflected by the eyes of the painted, the red lips are emerging from the surrouding blue. The blurried background permits the viewer to concentrate in the face of the subject.

Good light and composition, very moody. Good composition, the circle of the eye is reflected in the circle of the hair The mask emerges totally from the black background thanks to the optimal lighting. This face remembers me the "dottore della peste" a historical mask of Venice

perfect composition. Good light. It's almost a monochrome red picture without distracting background. The face is yelling, a very powerfull gesture that actracts the eye for a long moment, the costume is astounding and the eyes are ipnotizing. I like a lot this picture, And the face is a real carnival face

This type of makeup is very similar to the one in my region, Sardinia in Italy. Search "mamutzones" with google, Same black painting, same sheepskin, same look, I was thinking the little child was in Sardinia before reading the details of the picture.
