[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
An elder looks out from a temple window in Bagan, Myanmar. This photo was taken in April 2007. Today I wonder how he is, this nameless man in my viewfinder, with his storylines etched in his hands and face.

Welcome to TL !!!

Wonderful piece of work.


thanks,

ps.Sorry, I've switched off the points system

Awesome photo. Can't fault your technique, but I have some comments on the composition. I can see that you've applied the rule of thirds. The left third of the photo makes the contribution of the rest weaker. I'd rather crop away the left third and halfway between the hand and the bottom edge. This will leave you with a strong diagonal (from the arm) balancing the beautiful arc he is leaning on. Nevertheless a beautiful photo!

This is a beautiful portrait. Well expose with superb tones and colour. Real nice composition, interesting surroundings, i also like the angle you've choose, and the way you've position that old man in the space of the frame. great texture. I really like this image.

Aloha
