Faces on the street – Jaisalmer ’tilak’
Jaisalmer Fort | Jan 2012
an early morning walk in the Jaisalmer Fort was another opportunity to grab a few portraits, a bit discreet this time (using a telephoto). This man appeared to be the boss in-charge, directing a group of men, working on repairing a section of the road/street. Looking at this photograph, I cant seem to figure out what he might be doing or saying to his men at this given instant.

Amazing portrait!
I like the way you have captured so much detail in this image, nice work.

Another great portrait, Abu. I’d love a telephoto lens so I could try my hand at portraiture — from a distance!
sure, and the next lens to follow will then be a 35 mm when you will want to get close . that is how it goes :)
fantastic series!
Thank you Mimo. I very much enjoyed working on this series
“No cheating! I’m watching you…” Great capture!
:) very well percieved !
you’ve caught a moment, and got “out of the box” for an intriguing portrait shot.nicely done.
Thank you Jane. the expression is not a common one, but one that is part of repertoire of human emotions.
Great photo! I think he’s watching them…not talking.
you are right and there is a bit of mystery in that expression, it is not clear (to me atleast) what to make of that expression. I guess this is where a still photograph can have an edge over video. That one moment in time, in isolation, is frozen forever !
