[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I photographed this shepherd who was wearing these clourful clothes and was driving his cattle. Here he is looking intently at a person who called him from afar and this profile shot really impressed me with his deep set eyes, a chiseled nose, white mustache and thick eye-brows so I do hope friends would like it..

Hi Abid

Please understand this is my opinion as an amateur only, and many will disagree with me.

I like the tight composition, but it would be nice to see a little more of his face. Also the focus is on the turban which is leaving his face a little soft.

Hello Abid,
An unusual portrait with the contrast having been well handled. I like the profile shot for the same reasons as you. This probably is a candid shot but I think he may have been comfortable about being photographed and I wonder what you could have achieved with fill-in flash. Also, there is a tendency with some portrait photographers with some images to leave space behind rather than the conventional space in front and I think here is an opportunity for that - to crop off on the left. However, very good as is. Well done.
