This is one genre i have not explored much since i got my camera. Hope to keep continuing this series, as there are too many faces out there that need to be photographed. I was in a quandary whether to keep this portrait as colour or BW. But i guess colour won, as i am not sure if i captured the eyes as well as i should have. In retrospect, i realised that it could have been a better frame, had i gone more closer.
Will keep Robert Capa’s quote in mind the next time i venture to shoot portraits, “If your pictures aren’t good enough, you’re not close enough.”
Take care,
Ciao

Going by the quote, I would say you are very very close:) The shot is an amazing work of photography, these kind of or level of shots are seen in magazines. I am happy you kept the colored one. B/W wouldn't justify the traditional colors of India. Waiting for more…
