Nyaung U

Photographer's Note

When I travel, I try to keep what I pack to the minimum. Here in the market, this display of male essentials caught my eye, as did the smile on the salesman. Not speaking Burmese, however, I could not inquire as to sizes. I suspected, noting the numerous slim figures on the local people, that there would not be anything that would fit me. This is the penalty for living in the "developed" world, so to speak.

Hi Ken
Great portrait and a great smile, I cam see why it drew you and your camera! The composition and pose is perfect too. This man reminds me a little of Rodney from only foods and horses.

Cheers
Noel

Hi Ken
It is a good capture: the eyes are on the upper one third section of the photo, the body position and the head turning to the left.
If I had been in your shoes, however, I would have leveled my camera with his eyes; this angle convey superiority.
I would also have done the post processing different; maybe less clarity to keep the natural look and less blue.
