Photographer's Note
His name is " Jitro" & if all of you remember he is the same person who was featured in my image "Shepard" almost taken one year before. This time he really seems to be tired of life due to old age. He was so weak that I avoided to make request him for posing. Technically I was expecting him against sunset light for getting catch lights in his eyes but nevertheless he added another beautiful portrait in my portfolio.The side light also added to enhance the texture of his skin exploring the marks of ages.

Nilesh,
contrast, light, cap's shapes and and the man himself makes watching the picture an impressive experience. Big compliments and thanks for sharing. Cheers

It reminds me of the photos of National Geographic. His face is so tired, his look so bitter. A sad image for sure. The continuity of his wrinkles to the folds of his turban is interesting.

Hello Nilesh
A really impressive close portrait, so sharp (maybe too sharp!) well framed. We feel the tireness of the man.
Congratulations
