I took this photo of this man with his wonderfully lined face in a very small village in the state of Rajasthan, India. I was attracted to his overall happy appearance, the lines in his face and his smile. To my eye, the blue background isolates him nicely. After I took his picture, I sat next to him to show it on the LCD. Through a translator I thanked him. He in turn thanked me for taking and showing him his picture. What a guy and what a country! Olympus E-M1 and 12-40 lens at 1/160, f/2.8 and ISO 200. Richard

Great expression, and wonderful color and detail. I like the blue background, too.
