As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! The Chinese believe in recording their every family member in meticulously recorded detail. These records are kept at the family home for generations, usually tended by an elder. I was very privileged to be shown this families records and, after some persuasion, was allowed to take his picture. But he only allowed me a few seconds and I had to work with what was available for light. Hope you like it. M9 with 35mm Summicron IV. If people are interested, I can post more of these travel portraits on this thread maybe. Or each as a separate thread? Mod advice please!

stuny Posted July 20, 2018 Share #3 Posted July 20, 2018 Very nice, and yes, why not start a "Travel Portraits" open thread. I'd like to see more of yours, too. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

abrewer Posted July 21, 2018 Share #5 Posted July 21, 2018 I love it. And I also believe this endeavor will be a much less dangerous exercise for the photographer than chasing motorcycle club members around the countryside. Carry on. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
