Photography...yes, it's OK, a photo from Jakarta Raya, Java

Photographer's Note

I was in Jakarta last week and had a chance to visit antique shops at weekend. This nice guy was selling that antique camera about 600 USD. :) We had a little chat with him then asked for shooting a photograph; he said "yes, it's ok."

thanks for all nice people of Jakarta.

kind regards,
Hakan

Hello Hakan.
This is indeed interesting with the large format film camera and the proud owner by its side. I still shoot more film than digital till today and a camera like that don't come easy in mint condition.
Thanks for sharing and have a nice day.

Haken,
Indeed nice subject to shoot but what I like is the light management. It's dark, yet everything is visible including the stacks of boxes behind the man. You exploit your 24-70, 2.8 so well. I also keep wonder how your shots are so sharp. Very good job. Power lies in simplicity again.
Regards,
Satyakki

Wow, this is an excellent portrait, Hakan. He seems a very nice and kind man, and your portrait does him justice. I also like that little clock up there.
