The Fisherman at Home by taffy

The Fisherman at Home

Junko and I had two different opportunities on our photo tour in Yangshuo to practice portrait work. It's not either of our interest particularly, or strengths, but it was excellent practice and the models we had were so warm and friendly. Pictured here is one of the four remaining cormorant fishermen in the area.

Junko's image from the same setting shows him getting his pipe ready: http://365project.org/jyokota/365/2016-11-12
What an amazing warm smile and a wonderful image.

Such a natural and sweet smile you've captured here! You have a way of making eye contact with people you are photographing in a natural way.

Goodness, he has very arthritic looking hands but he seems happy enough. I hope that that is the case. Interesting and pleasing portrait - it's good to see him in the context of his home.

I not only love his smile but I love his surroundings as well. A fabulous capture, Taffy. FAV Do you follow Leana, she is from South Africa and has been on her bike in China and not sure if she is still there. Your photos remind me of some of hers as well. Would have been fun to be able to meet each other.
