the mystery man

Do you remember the silhouette of the rice farmer that I shared a while back? Well this is the mystery man, in the light. I honestly wish I knew his name so I could refer to him as something other than "the rice farmer," but I suppose it will have to do for now. As I mentioned before, I took many photographs of this man, so you'll likely see him in the future. And hopefully, when you see the photos, you'll understand why I took so many of him. I found him to be incredibly photogenic, and while many of the photos I took are of him being quite serious, I think you'll start seeing his incredibly gentle personality poking through over time.
