Beautiful portrait with some very nice lighting! I read somewhere in the comments you used an 85mm lens. Am curious to know which one is it. :) I have a Samyang 85mm/f1.4, manual focus lens. I have used it a few times, but it’s a HUGE struggle getting the shot in focus at 1.4 coz the DOF is so shallow! And sometimes I don’t have the patience to finish what am shooting. :D
Ah, the 85/1.8 – it’s is an awesome lens! My 85/1.4 needs a lot of time and patience. Doable, but I have realized a manual focus lens is not for the restless me. :D I am trying to get hold of a used 135/2.8. It’s been my dream lens for a long time.

Beautifully captured :)
Thank you :)

As I get close to his looks, I would suggest the title : Man Reading at Hyde Park, Sydney
:)
true :)
Nice complementary colours and selected focus but I am curious why you chose colour rather than black and white.
Thank you Jane :)
This had some nice sunlight, so tried color.
I especially like the sun shining on the back of the bench, Joshi. Sunset years!
Thank you Ginnie :)
I like the light on the bench. A moving photo
Thank you Marie :)
nice shot with composition and colours))
Thank you :)
I love this!! I love how warm it looks. Golden glow yumminess 💕👍
Thank you :)
This is beautiful. The slightly blurred gold of the chair, the soft background, the sharpness and angle of the leg. Totally gorgeous.
Thank you so much :)
Beautiful lighting
:)
Perfect frame joshi
Thank you :)
A LIKE.

Reblogged this on Vietnam Travel & Trade Portal.
I like this pic. But wondering why you didn’t click it in landscape mode. It would get more realistic view of this man with more colors.
Just asking as i am trying to learn photography now a days.
Thank you :)
Composition wise, it won’t create any impact for this image on landscape mode on a 85mm lens.
Love the light in this.
:)
Well captured candid!
Thank you :)
A beautiful composition and a warm light… perfect shot.
Thank you :)
Un portrait très touchant.
Bonne journée
Thank you :)
Lovely contrast, Joshi. Love the light coming and shining out from the background, lighting up the darker foreground :)
Thank you Mabel :)
One of the joys of retirement. I like the golden light on the back of the bench..

Excellent shot, Joshi, but by my 70-year-old eyes he looks pretty young to me.

Looks awesome… beautiful! Got curious to know which camera you used for this shot. I’d really appreciate if you let know.
Thank you Abhijit :)
I have a used a Nikon D610 for this.
Thanks for letting me know!
I like your portraits
Happy for that :)
Your last photo reminds me a painting, it evokes a little bit David Hopper…
:)
I love how you catch a person’s inner essence!
Thank you Ann :)

Mine is a Nikon 85mm 1.8D lens. Film era lens ;)
1.4 can be risky, but i think with more patience it should be ok.

Hehe. All the best :)
I really like the observer’s POV here. Did he know you were taking the picture?
Thank you :)
Of course she knew!
Wow

There is an outwordly contrast in this image that is heavily based on color; it truly charms the eye of the beholder.
Thank you :)
Simple yet beautiful! He might not feel old tho and rumour has it you’re only as old as you feel!
