snake-charmer Photo

Photographer’s Note

I saw this snake-charmer in front of Hawa Mahal. He was the first one I met in my trip, so I was amazed by his job.
I heard that snakes are not enchanted by the music, but by the movement of man's head.

I lighted man's face and darkened half background. Cropped.

Hi Livia!

This is a great composition. I like the colors and the details.

And I have to say that I've learned something today... I thought that snakes are enchanted by the music ;)

Thanks for sharing and take care,
Susana

Hi Livia,
Nice portrait of a man and the cobra snake. I like the face of this man and warm colours. Good shot. maki

Interesting shot, Livia.
Very nice view of this typical guy of India.
The only thing I would point out is that you should have not cropped the basket. I think it would be even better in terms of composition.
All by all a great shot.
Regards,
Celso
