Looking out the window

Uploaded: June 25, 2011

Description

Shot this through the congested space between the airplane window and the back of a seat in front of me. This guy was looking out the window seemingly in some deep thoughts. I had to angle my shot as I wanted to get his hand and the big ring in the frame too.

I think this is fantastic and I love the angle you were forced into -- way to get creative in very limiting conditions. Super expression and I love the lighting. Very nice tones in the conversion. #9486676

Really nice work, Usman. Great sharpness throughout your subject, all the more impressive considering your space limitations. #9489847

Fantastic capture, Usman!! #9829906

This is a terrific, candid capture, Usman; perfect in b/w. The lit side of the window, resulting from your angle/position, is a fantastic element amidst all the dark tones. #9836707
