Photographer’s Note

We visited a village of Kurulu, District of Wamena, Papua. Some of them are still wearing their traditional custome.
Picture taken on a bright day, cool weather (24 Celcius). The original is color picture, to give an old-days imagination, I used Picasa program to make it Sephia look.

Hi Prima,
I am happy to post your first critique. I like you composition ans the idea of turning the picture into a sepia. Indeed, it made it look a bit older, like from the 60's or so.
What I would improve here is the line of a horizon, it's tilted a bit to the left. It's hard to end up with a square composition. This tight cropping made it work here well.
I will be visiting your gallery in the future, you have the potential to create interesting shots. Keep it up.

Have a god day,

Kind regards,
Michal
