bazaar, a photo from Golestan, East

Photographer's Note

A weekly market is held on Thursdays in the small town of Aq-Qaleh. Most residents of the city of Aq-Qaleh are the Turkmen people.
It was very difficult for me to decide between black and white, but in the end I chose the color photo. Thanks for seeing.

Ali, excellent portrait taken at a market. The photo shows the physical features of the person. He has wrinkles and a serious expression. Fine colors, good image quality, regards.

Hello Ali,
Very strong portrait of this old man with his weathered face and white beard, well presented and cropped.
Thanks and regards,
Gerrit

Salam Ali
I am drawn to his engaging warm face, detail, pleasant expression and eye contact that make this portrait standout. Nice attempt though.

PS; For portraiture, why you use iso 1600 when lighting looks favourable, I would go for Iso 200, biggest fstop 3.5 and max focal 105mm rather than 45mm which appeared slight 'elongated' That said, hope acceptable to you
Best regards

A great, authentic portrait of this Turkman ! Black and white would have done fine too, but the colour photo is oustanding anyway. The old man’s face is so expressive with all those lines. His eyes are an ocean of thoughts.
Thanks for sharing.
Marie-Louise.

Hello Ali,

It is good to see you on TE again.

This is an excellent close-up portrait!
You have positioned the all important eyes in a strong position, with just a hint of catch-light.
The other facial details are extremely sharply captured and give us an excellent impression of this old Turkman.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)
