[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Krishna was a neighbor of my friend's grandmother. His farm halfway between hers, and the road. This is his last picture. Walking home the night after we left, he must have slipped, and fell down the mountain. His family found him the next day. When I was there, he joked with everyone, sang for us, and danced. He was great fun, and there will be an empty spot in the world where he entertained all of us.

Gloria, it is so sad to read your note. Your photo is at least one way for people to remember him, but that is small consolation. I love that you were so close when you photographed him, the wide angle distortion is appealing here. The background is great as well. This is not a typical shot of yours, you usually show quite a lot more of the surroundings, but this is a very high quality photo, just too bad the occasion is so sad.

another very nice porterit Goloria , very nice framing and smooth colors

Very nice (almost etnographic) portrait Gloria. I like the warm (colour) atmosphere and his expression. Well done ...

This is a lovely portrait Gloria, not your usual sort of shot. He looks like a very nice man and you have caught his expression well. Sad to read your note.

Nice large post and very sharp. There are alot of Nepali faces on TE now!

Very impressive picture after reading the sad happening.
The image is sharp and his happy caractere is well shown, certainly his friends & family will be very happy to have such a memory photo...

Again a very nice portrait Gloria. Very nice capture of the details of the face and the expression of the man.
Very well done!

What an excellent portarit, Gloria. Very sharp and a great expression. I like the few hair on his chin, while other parts of his face are very well shaved. Very well captured. Good job, and good note, well done.

Nice portrait Gloria.
Specially after reading the note.
A very sober and touching portrait of your friend. May he achieve peace !!!

Great expression on the person in this photo. Very good note too, it really makes you think about the photo.

But by a stroke of fate of you being there to capture this captivating face Gloria, he has filled many spots around the world in providing us with a glimpse of his life from afar.
