A portrait from Chanderi, a photo from Madhya Pradesh, Central

Photographer's Note

If you look carefully at my last upload you would have seen him sitting in his chair. He is the father of the vegetable seller. Taken in a back-street in Chanderi, what a nice stop that was.

Hi Elaine,

Great portrait. You have capture the character of this man very well. Lovely detail and light. The black background behind the white turban has helped a lot.

Thanks for sharing

Hi Elaine
A beautiful portrait with nice clear color and a perfect sharpness. I like how he stands out the black BG and the way he looks at you straight in the eyes.

Hi Elaine
This is a fine portrait of a cool relaxed man and the overall expression is so gentle. Lighting is almost even and pleasant, a fine engagement with the subject and good facial detail. I think I would have preferred shallower dof to isolate the left background distraction, nevetherless still a good portrait.
Well done, TFS
Warm regards
