Feather in the Bowler

By Richsr
Many thanks to everyone for all your comments on my last upload very much appreciated, also thanks to budapestbill for his User Award on 'On the curve' again very much appreciated.

A visit to Borough Market near London Bridge station gives some good photo opportunites this is one of the colourful stall holders who make the place.
A quick chat and permission to take a shot gave me this which when I showed him prompted the comment : still as ugly as I was this morning when I looked in the mirror. Which gave a smile

Thanks for looking
Regards Richard.

Thought I recognised him in the thumbnail - one of my favourite stalls in the Market... An open, engaging portrait of a character in his natural element.

Great portrait Richard, could the yellow colour and clock be toned down, because you can still see what time it is, the attention is here, and not on the main subject.

Great candid, Richard. I liked his response to you. The guy obviously has a good sense of humor and you captured that in your shot.

A natural smile, makes such a difference, and I like the eye contact, Richard. Good tones and a great pose.
