Hello
I like this photo, especially the way you have it framed, the man slightly to the right with the foreground bread and tea. The colors are great. HOwever, the angle seems a little jarring. You are just above him somewhere with the camera angled slightly. The result is that while he is the main object of focus, he is too far back and we have too much our eye does not care to see (the brown wood in shadow) or not in focus (the bread and tea). Had you been a little lower, the camera level, and the foreground more focused, I think this would have been a stronger photo. He has a powerful sense of presence and a strikingly beautiful face which show well in this photo and you obviously felt this. Thank you for sharing this beautiful image.

Sama tea glasses as in India, nice colormood, maybe a standing frame was easier to avoid non informative space. Could you add some note Tamarin, easy, the what, where, who when and why.
