A gentleman of Comilla, eastern Bangladesh, dressed in his Friday finest, kindly agreed to pose for this portrait. Friday is the weekly day of rest in Muslim countries, when people don their best clothes, visit friends and relatives, and of course, go to the mosque for prayers and sermons. The men of Bangladesh are particularly proud of the beards and moustaches. Although not a popular tourist destination, the people of Bangladesh are uniformly friendly, welcoming and curious.
