Languishing in the Afternoon Sun
Portrait photography has never been my strong point but I was really pleased with this shot I caught of a friend of mine.
Taken at Al Qasar hotel, Dubai in the late afternoon sun with my 18 – 55mm lens.
I think Sepia just adds more depth and emotion to the image and I feel I captured the essence of the moment without my subject realising it.

A wonderful candid, emotional portrait…relaxed, full of joy, and sparkle…plenty of character, especially with the surrounds and it has added dimension in Sepia !!
