The thirteenth week of this year found me on the road trail, heading into the Pakaraima mountains towards Orinduik Falls on the Ireng River that borders Guyana and Brazil.
Although I took quite a few photographs, I had not been able to fully go through and process them, this week I did manage to do some narrowing down.
I have lots of photos of mountains and vehicles from the trip, not too many people, but I decided to go against the flow and choose one of a person…
When I took this photo I noticed the “look” in the eyes, Naseem had that Clint Eastwood stare, and with the hat and the general scene I was reminded of the spaghetti westerns.
Its not a Spaghetti Western, maybe we can call it a Macaroni Western, starring The Great N, and we’ll title it “A Neckful of Straps” 🙂 And the catchphrase could be “Mister, I’m watching you, one of these straps has your name on it.” 🙂
Although I was tempted to try for a “Technicolor” processing, I went for a copper-tone instead 🙂 As always, please click on the image to get a better view in the Gallery.
The 200 yard stare could be scary, but then you notice the 200 pound belly and realize: not so scary after all 😀
Well, I think that maybe the 200lb may be the total package (or a little above) but certainly not the belly alone 🙂
Michael. Naseem did his shooting with the camera and he kept his gang alive with his delicous cooking. I think the look on his face is saying. “Eat you food or else”. Nice picture and nice story. Regards. Cecil
Thanks Cecil, Agreed, it was eat it or starve 🙂 And its not as if it didn’t taste good either 🙂 You sure ate that chota!
