Photographer's Note

a beautiful Hazara boy (Hussain) see to my camera in the alley in semnan.
Hazara people are a afghan's ethnos. the hazara refugees live in semnan as iran. but went more of them. moreover their language is "persian" and are shia. i realized hazara's race is of the mongols origin. i like hazara people, specially their faces.

Always keen to learn about Ethnic diversity, I find this picture and your notes fascinating. I am pleased you are able to communicate the descent of these people.

I would like to see some more pictures of the Hazara people.

Perhaps you could play with the contrast of this image slightly?

Hello again Saam

Interesting portrait, the note really fits to it.
It is just the latest years that I have started noticing the differences in looks on people from asia.
There are always things that seem to stand out, don't get me wrong but I think all the countries of asia have a bit different look.

As for the photo.
It is a nice portrait, very good focus on the face and figure and very good angle to actually get a good view of the ethnic "speciality" (Don't get me wrong here!)
What is a bit disturbing is the brick wall in the background, the sudden bend it does just at the building corner makes a very disturbing visual effect, if possible I would have tried a little different angle.
Thank you for sharing.

Odd Jarle
