Description

I was walking near the Chinatown area of Manila when I saw this old man taking a rest from the heat of the day. He had been collecting small things from the streets to put in his bag. He just looked so tired and lost in thought. Life is very hard for a lot of people here.

Kate, I really like the use of the leading lines toward your subject. The red caught my eye. After looking at your shot, I wonder how this would look in B&W. #1177158

Thank you Eric. I haven't tried the image in B&W yet although I think the tones may work quite well. #7920532
