Quote:Is it possible to lose the ability to smile?
YES Leo, reasons:
1. years of intolerable hardship in life,
2. hostile or unsympathetic social environment,
3. prolonged isolated social lifestyle,
4. distrust of public through years of distancing because of past bad experiences.
Many of my street subjects fall into 1 to 4 or a combination of reasons.......so it is very very difficult
for them to irk a simple smile for my camera no matter how hard I tried.....their facial muscles just don't work
so immediately! ee
