My First Blue
WOW! I finally got it!
It was one of my dream to get a 
blue (1st place ) on Dpchallenge contest, which come true today. I really struggled hard to make this happen. I tried hard, sometimes got frustrated & lost hope that I can ever make this.

There is no prize for winning but the satisfaction of winning among the best photographer is priceless! That urge of winning had improved my photography knowingly & unknowingly. For winning in such contest one try to learn more, look around for subject & I too was able to update my portfolio with variety of subjects & concepts. This is important for a non-professional hobbyist since they have to take time from their non-official hours.
About the image:
Thanks to the old man for kindly allowing me to take his photograph. On one morning walk I saw him setting outside his hut & the vibrant colorful clothes attracted me. After returning home I took my camera specially for capturing him for this contest. He was a little bit shy but I was able to make him comfortable & got a winning shot.

Undoubtedly his face was full of character, the face with marks of age, big mustache & beard & curious eyes along with vibrant colorful clothes everything was fascinating! I didn’t mind to take a tighter shot exploring all these details.
