Waterman

Posted by Natalia (Louisville, United States) on 1 July 2007 in People & Portraits and Portfolio.

Water is scarcity in the NW of Afghanistan, and people have to go long distance to get it. Often water is salty, and 'sweet' water is a treat.

Wonderfully capture and composition of this shot.
The kicked up dust gives this picture a far bit sense of movement. This chap seems to be enjoying himself while having his photo taken:)
Well done!

@Daniel & Jessica: Thanks, D&J. Your comments really appreciated. I was half expected him be annoyed at me taking photo of him, pulling this very heavy cart, and prepared to apologize, but he just... smile.

Composition is good. Colour from the bottles provide an interesting contrast. Eye contact with the subject enhances the shot further.
