A very successful portrait shot with nice placement of the subject at golden position of the frame, very good control of light, nice details and warm tones. Bravo.

The composition makes me feel a bit crowded, like I'm being pushed out of the picture, I think it would work better if the negative space were positioned on the opposite side.

A beautiful portrait, Kallol!

He looks so natural and plenty of joy,best regards.

very nice you done a very good job

best wishes,

Kallol,

There seems to be some disagreement as to your compositional balance in this portrait. Let me add a comment on subject placement for portraits with rather neutral backgrounds. 

Your subject should have more room in front of him than behind. This allows him to be facing into the picture, not out of it. You want to compositionally balance the left and right sides of the photograph. The compositional "rule" for this suggests that you position the tip of the subject's nose in the vertical center of the photograph. By positioning the tip of her nose in the vertical center of the photograph you not only have him facing into the picture, but you have good left and right compositional balance. This little rule almost always works well. At least it gives you a good starting point from which to subtly adjust your composition to make it visually balanced.

It appears your color is a bit on the yellow side. You may want to remove some of the yellow.

Nice shot,

Mark

Thanks Mark for your valuable critique & advice. I shall bear it in my mind while clicking the next one.Actually it is an outdoor street capture & was difficult to frame the subject as he was moving. The yellowish tint is due to white balance adjustment which did not worked well.

My best regards..Kallol.

Nice casual shot... I like his natural smile... As mention before, too much space on left, and tight on right...

Kallol, tack sharp image. His smile is infectious. A pleasing portrait.

I love this portrait. There's something in his eyes that makes you feel happy and alive. My best regards. Cosmin

Lovely light, details and the softness. A nice expression in his eyes also. Wonderful.

Thanks for sharing. All the best. Regards.

Persoanlly, (and that means very little), I like where this young lad is positioned. He has a youthful expression of joy on his face that is most welcome these days.  I know nothing about Portrait Photography, but this shot put  a smile on  my face.  Sometimes I wonder if we haver TOO MANY rules....they have their purpose, but if some of the greatest artists followed all the 'rules', we'd possibly never heard so many beautiful Symphonies, viewed such magnificent paintings and statues....the list could go on forever into many areas of the  Arts.

He is 'Up Close and Personal', and joyful he is.  One less starving and all too saddening photo of a child.  I welcome it Kallol. You seized a moment and quite often they pass ALL TOO QUICKLY  if you take time to follow all the 'rules'....who made them anyways????? sincerely, a very 'uninformed' Gail

Thank you all for your kind complements.

Thanks Gail for such a comment.Yes I beleive that photography is an ''ART''= Absolulely Relative Thought & sometimes breaking of rule comes out with better results.I often used to forget those rules while taking shots as sometimes you may miss a moment if you remain sticked to rules.

Thanks a lot again.

My best regards to all..Kallol
