Description
After taking the first photo of the old man of Loeriesfontein, he started slowly to come out of the doorway. I went up to him and said hi and asked him if i can take another photo of him. His whole face contorted into a huge toothless smile. And he nodded. I took the shot. He slowly walked on.
hope you enjoy it.

hmm, I can't say whether I'd like to have that door vertically adjusted or if it's better this way ... I really can't decide ...

yeah i know. . . was pondering that myself before submitting. . . my rationale was that it ads to the "realness" of the pic, by making it less "formal",but whether thats a valid argument or not im not sure. . .

Wow, great light here. If I were you I'd bump the contrast a bit, just to make his wrinkles pop out some more, or maybe black and white. Great subject too. I like the single white hair coming out of his left nostril.
Great shot here, man. Plusfave.
