taking a break Photo

Photographer’s Note

spotted this old trishaw rider taking a break in his trishaw. trishaws still exist in singapore, but they're primarily for tourists. locals prefer more modern types of transportation.

I like the angle of this shot. I would be tempted to shoot from the front, but I think your angle works much better (I've seen many front shots of this same subject over the years). The colors and stripes of the roof are nice and I like how we get a small glimpse of the man who's taking a break. We have to use our imagination in order to construct our own image of what he may look like. Engaging image. Very well done!

I like this, the stripes of the trapaulin
forms a very good framing to the side with the old trishaw in the camou shorts balancing on the other end.
Well Done!
