    Egypt 5: Cleaner at Luxor Temple

    Hi all .. the last of my promised five photos from Egypt. As you can imagine, I could go on and on - the whole place is just so incredibly photogenic.

    This guy was a sweeper at Luxor Temple. They are paid hardly anything, and probably make more money posing for pictures than they get in wages.

    As always, any comments are appreciated.

    Cheers
    Mike

    Mike,

    Great subject, yet a little over exposed in areas (especially in the top right). His facial expression is great, and you filled the frame nicely. Nice shot, just lower the brightness a tad!

    Nice shot,

    Jared

    Great expression! I prefer the shot has more contrast.

    The expresion is priceless like said before, but the hot spot on his turbin is a big distraction. I also find the bright spot on his had distracting.
