Hi Kristen,
Welcome to TE and I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do.
As for your photo, very nice off-centered composition, and I like that the man doesn't seem aware of the presence of your camera. Good choice to go B&W on this: perhaps sepia would have worked too. Great work Kristen, and keep on sharing!
All the best,
Gerd

Me gusta, sombrero y barba caracteristicos, sin duda va vestido de fiesta.
El vestido podría ser occidental, sin embargo es seguro que la barba y el sombrero son orientales.
Quizas podría verse todavía mejor con el fondo desenfocado.
Saludos smooth

Je me demande ce que peut bien regarder ce monsieur où à quoi il pense pour avoir l'air si serein et heureux !!
