Camel Man in Egypt

Spotted this man walking his camel on the beach in Egypt and thought his face was far more interesting than the camel.

Yes his face is more interesting than a camel.
Good use of tele lens & (relatively) wide aperture which which blurs the non-intrusive BG & isolates him from it.
I think his head being slightly off centre was a good choice - much better than centred & it captures the essence of the man that much better.

Regards, Ian.
