~ glance ~, a photo from Jawa Timur, Java

Photographer's Note

It only takes a glance to capture the emotion & expression of this hard working vendor in Pucang Anom market, Old Surabaya.

Not a pretty face, there's no glamour or luxury about this woman and she had nothing precious except her soulful smile that I love to treasure.

Stay cheerful lady.....

Hello Abmdsudi,
A great portrait of this kind-looking lady with such a beautiful smile on her lips and in her eyes. Very well composed and the red and green colours of her clothes make a nice contrast with white and light blue tones in the blurry backdrop.

Hello Abmdsudi,

This is a very fine portrait!
You have captured her features with amazing clarity and also her sense of fun.
I just love that she is directing our attention into the empty space where there is nothing to distract from her charming character.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Abmdsudi,

Nice to see the old woman at left smiling. Good use of a shallow dof and the oof bg provides a neutral backdrop. Excellent textural details on her weathered face. Tfs!
