Saigon Haircut.

Shot in Saigon. I love the outdoor barbers there, they are in the open so do they mind

being watched? Maybe yes, maybe no.

Love how you got both faces in the shot. The shot wouldnt have been nearly as effectful without the reflection in the mirror.

this is really excellent, i know it s difficult to take these"barber shots"....PS: like your stuff :-)

Another very good shot. As far as I'm concerned to improve it, I would crop 1/10 at the right and at the bottom (to put the miror in the right angle). Then, in the darkroom I would lighter the face of the barber and darken in a half circle the lower part to focus the glance on the upper left corner. Regards.

This photo illustrates the effectiveness of using the 'background' to portray your subject. The face in the mirror is actually one of twin 'subjects' of this photo; the other is the barber. So, this is a twin portrait, done in a most complex and interesting fashion.

 

In my view it is extremely successful; a very nice photograph indeed.
