Description the reality is, he has to sell kerosene and walks miles everyday to stay survive.
he was nice, he even smiled when i said my thanks to him for letting me took a shot of him.
that was the honest smile merged from his tired old face.

taken with my Dad's nikon AF240SV. still crappy

I like the subject matter, the composition, the partial desaturation, which is very effective in making the man and his carriage stand out and the nice warm colours of the carriage.

i had to do partial desaturation, since too many distracting objects when taking shots on busy street area, so the main object would be the first thing caught by eyes.
thankyou for commenting

This should have been cropped better, right now the compostion is way too tight around the subject. Use the rule of thirds.

Colors are very desaturated. I saw the orginal photo and i like it much better or how it could look when the levels/saturation are adjusted.
