old man in Jaipur

This is a wonderful portrait. It makes you want to know this man, to hear his stories.

Full on portrait of an old man with a smile ... nice. I think it might have been better to include all his beard, I suspect that he might be proud of it and therefore it would be an important element in any portrait of him. As for originallity, I don't think this portrait could be bescribed as original in any use of technique or in any compositional sense.

 

Nice shot.

 

I think best image out of the three in this folder at present is "Looking Through", a far more interesting image than either of the other two.

Eyes more shiny than diamond

rather see vertical

India is a fascinating (and often unpredictable) place to photograph people. This is a pleasant portrait, but I think though that I too would like to see it as a vertical.

I think photo.net crique people need to check their eyes. Anything black and white of an older person in a foreign country gets high marks.
