Comment from Macsim
Very interesting photo! Expressive expression of the face, pleasant colors. A bit more contrast would have been great. No offense supergold, but I do not agree with pictures cutting limbs. Usually the hands should never be cut before elbows and never cut few fingers. Thanks for sharing!

Or maybe this rasta has just gotten his hands on some good weed and is showing the effects. Very nice colors and a great capture of his expression.

Comment from Susan F. M. T.
Fred,
A very expressive 3/4 profile portrait of the Steel Band Player, his dreadlocks hidden under his hat & his ye looking into the distance & somewhat 'spaced out' due to something he took to aid his dreams???? Beautiful composition, framing & soft lighting taken with superb camera techniques with sharp focus.

merci beaucoup
Comment from mudge
A well framed, sharp and colourful candid portrait. The use of a wide aperture has nicely thrown the background out-of-focus, giving a 3D feeling
The dulled expression in the man's eyes has been well caught, and as the Title suggests he looks as if he wants to be somewhere else!

Comment from kellyg
Dreams, everyone dreams, His expression is priceless. Love his hat. Great focus, framing, DOF. As he dreams, lost in his music that he is playing. But how many people that are listening are dreaming, that they can play as well as he? To be able to sit back and drum out song after song, usually I am guessing on request. Yes, it would be a tough life, in one way, but in another, one of satisfaction to be able to be so talented to be able to do that. Thanks for sharing.

Great photograph. The colors are vivid and striking, right mon? I love to listen to Caribbean Steel Drums. Just such a great sound. This is such a classic character to be seen playing the drums. Well done.
