portraits Ndebele Patriarch 2.JPG

I would appreciate any comments on this image. Even though the white

strip to the right of the doorway might be a little distracting, I

wanted to include the painting on the wall to give the portrait shot

context. What do you think? Better without the painted wall?

I think it's best as you have it, to show where he is and where he is looking.  It would have to be a very tight crop to exclude the white strip.

Thank you for your comment and experience Tony.  It is always interesting to note how differently an image is evaluated in the photographic club scene versus other fora.  The white stripe would probably cause it many problems at a club....
