both are crops: the first chap is Tibetan, on a pilgrimage route, arguably I whould have zoomed in on his face as the headgear is interesting but not so much the outfit—however I thought the kettle was interesting so included that even if the overall photo suffers….just thought it was interesting the notion that he went on this two week pilgrimmage by foot and brought the kettle with him. The second chap is Uigyur, saw him working in the fields one day when I was cycling along. Yes, those are real eyebrows. Took both with a fairly basic camera that I bought in China having dropped my Canon in a river.
Nice photos, especially the character in the first.
These remind me of Steve McCurry’s work http://www.stevemccurry.com who did a lot of portraits around Asia.
