Description
This elderly gentleman was very shy when he saw me watching whilst he and his fellow workers were planting rice. He was somewhat bemused when I gave him a big smile and took his photo!!
It was quite a remote place so I don't suppose he sees many blonde Europeans very often!!

It is a wonderful shot, Eileen. Such character in his gentle face. If we can read a face.. I would say this gentlemans life has been a hard one yet the gentleness remains. Wonderful work. Hugs from another blonde!! Diane.

I love how the rice behind him frames him perfectly, and all the textures--the paint spatters, his skin, the detail of the seams--a gorgeous photo all around!

Eileen this is a tremendous capture. You leave the viewer to draw their own conclusions from looking into his face as whether he is kind or maybe he is sad, or any number of emotions we as humans experience. Art in its purest form i would think is a capture such as the one you have presented to us. Thanks for sharing.

My Sister Eileen has taken another superlative portrait of people we rarely see close up and personal. The lighting, detail and texture are wonderful beyond belief! You are a real master at this phase of photography.

Great photo technically and great catch on this man's expression. He has something mysterious behind that look.
