Photographer's Note
I could not even see his eyes they were hiding somewhere behind his hollow eye sockets. May be due to extreme hard work and extreme poor nutrition or may be the biological clock.
Nothing much to share here.
Just got interested when I saw him with his cap.
Have a wonderful time

In addition to the hollow eye, the wrinkle, and white beard are sign of weathered age. Youth in the background provide a nice contrast.

Hi Tushar
Sometimes, we think that all the elements are gathered for a success, but something uncontrollable happens; and, even if it is a little thing, all is spoiled. That would unfair to say that's what has happened to your picture, but in a way, yes. I find the composition excellent, and it benefited of a great timing, with theslhouette of the young girl passing behind, perfectly placed in the frame to provide an interesting contrast with the main subject, all the more that there is a strong oppoition between them... as if the image was suggesting the gap beteen the childhood, already far away (this is blurred in the memory) and the present time, ruled, from now on;, by the oldness. The hat on the man's head also gives to him, somehow, a childish demeanor; which makes an extra link with the child in the background. All this is very well orchestrated, and, even if it is only a coincidence of timing; it is a happy one. The sharpness on the face itself is also excellent. Buuut -and that's what, to my opinion, put a limit to the impact of the photo- the dark shadow down his nose, caused by I don't know what, is so visible and prominent; that it is distracting enough to make us forget the qualities of the portrait. And that's a pity.
I made a WS to show you what I mean. Of course, the proportions are not so good anymore, but it will give an idea of my vision. Congratulations anymway.
