This is another shot from the Muttrah Souq in Muscat (Oman), taken at much the same time as this one, and I can't explain why but I really like how this one turned out: there's just something about his shy almost coy expression that really makes me smile :)

Yes, the subject and his allure are interesting. The choice of treatment is moody and nice and makes one think of the 60s ;-)

I love his expression. The treatment looks cross-processed (which I also love).

Me too David. Nice moment and amazing transformation from the original. Love the bright coloring. C.

Super contrast and super color, not easy to do that well. Congrats!

A pretty sharp image for 1/20. Were you hand holding?

Thanks everyone.

Kelly: yes, this was hand-held.

Very nice shot. The attitude is great. I like how the processing make the colours stand out yet stay natural.
