[Leica] migrant father - Alan M.R.

[j2m46 at hotmail.fr (Jean-Michel Mertz)]

 Thanks, Alan, for your response and suggestion. I agree, the father's face 
- and beard - is a bit overworked. There are no spots involved, this was 
shot outside, under a bright sunshine, but my use of silvereffex is a bit 
awkward yet. I think I need to work on details such as the one you very 
wisely suggest!
