Man in a Serape

I was driving up Main St, adjacent to historic Olvera St which is basically where the city of Los Angeles first took root. I was meeting up with @webfoot for a photo walk and I was running on time FOR ONCE! LOL Never tell anyone miracles don't happen. ;-)

Anyway, I spotted this man walking up the street and of course I grabbed my camera...AFTER I stepped on the brake. Don't shoot and drive, people.

Of the handful of shots I got, this one was the best, despite the clutter of signage and glaring orange cones. The clutter is somewhat less obtrusive with the color removed from them.
The more I look at this, the more I want that junk gone. I'll make an effort to check the other shots I took here to see if I can do something with a view of him before he got to all that background mess.

Taken Jan 26, just before the photo walk with @webfoot.
Gorgeous shot!!! The B&W has certainly removed a lot of distraction!!!

You are correct in that the B&W takes away some of the clutter, but he's still a little lost against those signs.
