Selvam

Madurai

I always was facinated by the big glasses (-2.5 I suppose ?) he is wearing. So I took a closer look.
Here he goes, once again,
the gentle photographer Selvam photographed in Sellur on his way to work in front of the sheltered outside corridors of a weaving factory.

A functional distortion to make his glasses even bigger then in reality.


other sizes: small medium original auto

Distortion creates emphasis and incongruity in this intimate portrait.

Another awesome portrait. Great perspective, love the reflections on the glass.
