Cool Dude by onewing

Cool Dude

My people photo for today is this gorgeous chap who I saw at the Multicultural Festival. I just loved his hat, plaited hair and beads.

He was playing in a band later that day and I was glad I got this shot of him when I did because trying to get a photo of him when he was playing in the band was too difficult.
Gorgeous portrait. Cool dude, for sure!

You did very well with this one - he looks like a happy chap. At the end of the year you should do one of those photo books just of your portraits - it would be a great keepsake.

@judy365projectorg Yes Judy he did know I was taking his photo. I usually ask people if I can take their photo. He was at the multicultural festival and there were lots of candidates for photos. A few have appeared on my 365 page.
August 16th, 2013  
Very well done. Like the slight smile and colorful hat to amplify his warm face!
August 17th, 2013  
Excellent portrait Babs! Good for you!

@sbolden @havrotb Thank you so much.
@sunraye I have enjoyed looking for people to put on here too.There are so many interesting people around.

August 17th, 2013  
@eyesmile Thanks for the fav Gena. I have just realized that most of men 'people' photos I have taken seem to have beards!!! There must be something Freudian about that I am sure!!!
August 17th, 2013  
You do people so well Babs. This is another brilliant shot from a great day, look forward to this years Multicultural outing.
August 17th, 2013  
@winnedreamer Thanks Nic. Me too.
August 17th, 2013  
Love it. It would be useful to take 'street' pictures for my blog, but I always chicken out on asking people if I can photograph them at the last minute.
August 17th, 2013  
Lovely dreamy look.
August 17th, 2013  
@tryingforsighs Thanks Rachel. Live dangerously and give it a go. I only ask if I am taking a photo of a particular person on the street. If it is just a street scene with a person in it I don't. They have always said Yes so far though.

@angelar Thanks Angela, he was a lovely chap. Could play a mean guitar too!!
August 17th, 2013  
Another amazing portrait!
August 18th, 2013
