[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
In the village of Senaru, on Lombok, this man allowed me to take a photo of him. Not sure why I didn't use a wider apperture and reduce the risk of camera shake. Not thinking clearly at the time I guess, but seems that the AS works well.

Here are a couple of other shots in the village.

Hi Steve,

This is a great portrait. A strange, but interesting face. Normally I don't like coloured framing, but here you chose well and it really works. Nothing wrong with that aperture in my book... This is my favourite in your Senaru series so far.

Cheers.

Benny

Hello Stephen,
He doesn't look quite comfortable, but he has an interesting face and I think I can catch a slightly amused glimpse in his eyes. All colours match each other remarkably well. It's quite sharp too, as far as I can tell.
Best regards,
Gert

Hi Steve,
He's quite a character posing you leaning on the wall. Tight framing works well and all brown colours are harmonous. Excellent sharpness even on 1/15.

Hi Stephen,
Wow, what an unusual face, he looks like quite a character. What I really like here other than his expression and the way he is sitting is all the different shades of brown forming a complete unified image and the light is just perfect to bring out all those amazing details in this great portrait. Very nice!
Regards
Wanda
