Nativo del Guayabal, a photo from Azua, West

Photographer's Note

disfrutando de una tarde muy tranquila, este señor, recostado de su silla a la pared, pasa su tiempo de descanso...

para mi, ha sido un placer conocer este personaje.

Pues parece que el senor se ha pasado asi toda la tarde nomas. En que estara pensando, o que estara observando? Lo mas probable que en nada, y simplemente disfrutando el ocio, como se debe. Y que buen angulo has encontrado para esta foto, Alex. Linda composicion, gracias por compartirla. Saludos, Daniel

Good shot. The subject is well positioned in the frame and we wonder what he is looking at. The multicoloured background is attractive too.

You have a great subject and an atmospheric setting. The colour and light are lovely. But, for me, the knee, jutting into the picture is a distraction. It doesn't seem to connect to the rest of the body and it cuts across the composition. The composition works as a series of upright and horizontal lines, even the upright figure of your subject fits perfectly into this. The triangular shape of the knee, for me, serves to weaken this. Apart from that, it is a lovely picture.

i like this portrait.
i was thinking it would be even more interesting with him looking at the camera...but the way you angled it with the direction going left of the pic works with this guy looking to the left...good comp!

This is a very good photo, with subdued but still eye catching colour, and detail in the old timber walls. The subject of the portrait is very well positioned, and his knee gives a great idea of his mood - relaxed. I don't mind it being there. He has a face of character.
