Ahhh.. A very curious expression there. Nice capture. The angle looks a bit steep theough. But then it gives a diff feel to the image...
Indeed unusual picture:)
Hi Sabyasachi, really unique portrait.
People like us PnS or Zoom lenses run towards the subject. On the contrary, you with prime lens must have to run away from the subject. Interesting.... :)
Nice potrait. Liked the curious look and the head turn. The details on the feathers are nice.
Sagar,
I agree that at times it becomes too much of focal length. :D I was clicking at 400*2=800 with a 1.3 crop factor camera ie. the effective focal length was 1024mm. Can't think of such a thing in the film days. Clearly digital has revolutionised photography.
In this case, I aimed to create an intimate portrait. There are a few standard portraits however, this expression was different.
Cheers,
