[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A follow-up to yesterday's close-up. Despite his efforts to attract money from the people along the riverfront he didn't garner any support for his musical talent.

The image was cropped to remove a bit of river at the top and his right elbow and knee at the bottom. Contrast was increased slightly and the image sharpened after resizing.

Very strong look you've captured here in this child's eyes. Somewhat defiant. Very nice light and blur here too.

Hi Mark!
Lovely clarity and light! Really a perfect portrait in every respect....with a wonderful look on the boy's face. Nice work, cheers,
Steve

Hi Mark,
What a great shot! Excellent detail and light, and his expresion is classic - almost like he's sizing you up and wondering if you're going to pay him! I can remember from recent travels in Cambodia just how hard and persistently many of these children will try to earn some money from tourists, much of the time whilst their meant to be at school!
Great photo, and thanks for sharing
Regards
Lee

Hello Mark
A beautiful image of children as they often encounter in Cambodia.
Much sharpness of the face well lit.
Regards.
Pierre.
