Photographer’s Note

Thanks to the old man for kindly allowing me to take his photograph. On one morning walk I saw him setting outside his hut & the vibrant colorful clothes attracted me. After returning home I took my camera specially for capturing him for this contest. He was a little bit shy but I was able to make him comfortable & got a beautiful shot.

Hi Nilesh,

Congratulation for this beautiful intimate portrait.

I like the way you have used its vivid colour clothing to frame his face. Good eye contact, honest and without frills.

Good work!

Hi Nilesh,
firstly I have to admire your work. Your framing is excellent. Strong portrait photography. Nice light and depth. Great sharpness and colour tone. Very good job indeed.
Congrats.

Your previous 'Mansi' shot is also great. I also thankful for that posting, but anyhow it is missing from TE. May be due to TOS. That was also a masterpiece.

Hi Nilesh!
A great portrait of this man.I like how his face with the strong expression is framed by his colorful dress.
A bit oversaturated for my taste.
Greetings from cold and grey Germany.
