Quelle expression sur ce visage. Un cadrage et une luminosité parfaite. Vraiment bien réalisé Michel !

Un très beau cliché d'un habitant du bout du monde. Le regard est bien saisi. Petit flou au niveau de la main gauche mais bon... cela reste une superbe photo Michel.

Very clear and true colors you got Michel and sharp too, the tight crop is an option, it could have been less here too. Pleasant colorfull photo Michel.

Nice portrait filled with beautiful color and great sensitivity. I particularly like the contrast of skin, wall texture, and clothing.Very well done!

Michel ton portrait est tres fort!!! mon seul regret est que tu aies coupé aussi court au dessus et en dessous de cet homme... il aurait mérité un peu plus d'espace... Mais ca n'en reste pas moins une superbe photographie! J'aime bcp!

Well framed classic portrait. Nice work.

really nice colors in the picture Michel.. the expression on the sadhu's face is candid too and i particularly like the wall he's sitting against.

Nice framing. His colorful robe stands out from the drab wall. He looks very inetense and focused. You have captured his power through the colors and the composition.

i midde this one... a really nice one, great guy nicely captured by you, very nice light and compo, deserves a big smiley for sure

I remember the temple beggars in madurai, they were all dressed in orange, sitting in line. A very potent image, with 2 tones who always contrast potently, with such saturation.

What his stare inspires me, is actually what i see as total indifference on his part (some may differ, of course). you are looking at him, he's looking at you... Click!

Not a criticism on your pix, but maybe on the shortcomings of traveling for all of us, sometimes: so close, yet so far....

Hi Michel! The man looks tired, but very focused and intensed. His clothes and his dark skin contrast very well, giving you a very colorful compo. Very sharp pic, too! A great shot of a typical daily life in India! Great work! rgds.

belle photo sur ce vieil homme, il semble très fatigué, belle expression aussi, et les couleurs de l'INde toujours aussi éclatantes,
j'ai posté aussi des images de ce pays dont je reviens

Salut,

Je trouve cette magnifique image, et je pense que les couleurs, et l'intensité sont
superbes. La pose reposante du saddhu, son regard montrent que c'est un sage qui connait
déjà tous les secrets de l'existence: Du moins c'est ce qu'il nous fait penser. Bravo Michel. Tu me fais penser sérieusement a entreprendre un voyage en Inde du Sud. Izzet

Hi Michel,
Another nice one from you. Good capture of the swami..The tired look on his face does not spoil the look of peace on his face. Nice compo.

This is very striking, the bright saffron clothes against the dull grey wall. A lot of strength as well as gentrleness in his expression. A superb portrait. TFS
