Local Barber Photo

Photographer’s Note

One of the local barbers in the ancient part of Ramla, Israel.
This city is one of the few mixed cities in Israel, where Jewish & Christian arabs live together.
I was looking to capture him in a much more natural pose but then decided to be polite and asked his permission. This ofcourse led to him posing :)...
Still, the feeling of that street is somehow conveyed here.
pp - B&W (channel mixer), Duotone, slight brightness/contrast, added some noise, frame

Guy -

Caught this image on the uncritiqued page and felt that it was a good image but that it was a bit flat. It lack contrast so I did a quick workshop on it - hope you like the results - I do.

Thanks for sharing
