Spectator

Friday people photo day. This chap was a spectator at the rodeo we went to recently and I had a lovely chat with him after I had taken his photo.

He told me that it has taken 15 years to grow his beard to this length.

Great candid Baba! Why in earth would you want to have all that hair round your face though!

[Boo]

That is a great beard! I will not sow this to Mr. Boo as he threatens to let his beard grow really long too!

[Poppo Livy]

If I had stopped shaving 20 years ago and never shaved again, I still wouldn't have that much hair when they buried me.

[Angela Tavan]

great shot and interesting beard - don't think I could stand that much hair on or around my face though!

[Angela]

The beard is a work of love! Great.

Excellent portrait Babs, :-)

[Paul "Snapchap" Everest]

Splendid shot. That beard must take a lot of tending. I struggle with mine and it is very short by comparison.

[Elaine]

Great portrait Babs, wonderful detail in that beard and interesting reflections.

[Lee]

Looks like a sharp dressed man!

[Pat Knowles]

We'll brushed beard!

[Steve]

Bet he is finding his breakfast in that all the way to luch

[April]

Very nice. I like photos of people that seem to tell a story.

[Derek Vickers]

What a great portrait Babs. So well spotted and captured.

[Paula W]

That's quite a beard, doesn't really do anything for me I must say!! Great shot Babs.

[Kathie]

Lovely candid shot. He looks like a character.

[Lynette]

I'm with Paula about the beard - each to their own & all that! Great colours - really like the red of the background against the blue of the hat.

[Marnie]

Great portrait Babs, he looks like quite a character. I'm with the majority re beards though!

[Sharon Simpson]

Great capture! I'd love to take my new pruners to his beard though! Could have some fun! Hehe!

Thanks so much. Sorry for the group reply yet again, but we have been out with the photo club all day today and I have got a splitting headache tonight. I have problems with my neck and tonight it is really playing up. I just need a neck transplant. Keep looking on ebay for a new one, but haven't found one yet.

This chap's beard seems to have caused a bit of a stir. I am sure he must get hot under all that hair in summer. I think the beard goes hand in hand with the Harley that he turned up to the rodeo on though. He was quite a character and a lovely chap to have a chat with.

Will check up on your photos tomorrow I promise. Just puting the clocks back an hour and then I am off to bed.

[Brianna]

Wow, now that sure is some dedication right there! A wonderful capture and he sure seems like quite an interesting character! Love your people shots! :) x

[Keith Porteous]

Nice portrait!

[Cathy Breen]

Great portrait, ZZTop called, they want their beard back!

[Cathy Breen]

oOOOOPS and Fav of course!!
