I shot this in Kerala, India which is my home place. I was on a morning walk to find any good photo opportunities and when I was about to wind up, this guy walked past me. I guess, he was going to work. This is the traditional costume of males in Kerala. Incidentally, I was also having a similar attire.

This is Kari Ann, greetings from the Critique Club:
composition: the leading lines in the image are fantastic, leading the eye into the frame, and straight to the subject
color: I really like the subdued colors, they give such a feeling of early morning, going early to work to get a job done
contrast: the softer contrast also adds to the early morning nostalgia, just quiet and calm
focus: focus is perfect on the subject, crisp and sharp
depth of field: I usually push for decreased DOF, but here I like how much is in focus. It brings so much more into context and makes you look longer to see all the little things in the frame.
lighting: Breathtaking morning light, very well preserved
other: overall, I was wishing this would score higher as well, i saw this during voting (though didn't vote myself) and this was one of my favorites. It seems others agree as well. Sometimes, DPC just works that way i guess.
Don't be put down by the score, keep up this wonderful photography. I hope to see more of your work soon!
