This portrait was captured in December on a green-painted jetty in Bulang Island, near Batam, Indonesia. The subject, an elderly local man, sits quietly observing daily life as children return from school behind him. His weathered face and calm gaze reflect decades of resilience in a coastal community undergoing rapid change.
Taken with a Canon EOS Kiss X4 using natural light and a telephoto lens to preserve authenticity, this image is part of a long-term documentary project recording everyday life in the Riau Archipelago before modernization altered its landscape.
It’s not just a portrait — it’s a silent witness to time, tradition, and transition.
