Last Tango in Trafalgar

Year 2 Day 271
This guy was brilliant, ended up paying him twice, once either side of lunch. The best bit was watching the passer-by's faces when they clocked him doing his crazy routine. Funnily enough I found this pic spoke more to me then the ones with people gawping. Like they are supposed to be dance partners too in an alternative universe...

He was called Lucien and I wished him good luck, which is tenuous enough to link A Tribe Called Quest http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCvr8sevyLk

This is fantastic... in a million years that shot would never be taken here!
Great capture.

[andy c]

cracking shot rich.. nicely composed what with the oblivious suits walking past in the background... good one mate!

[Judith Greenwood]

Brilliant - in fact Fav - you're right the random people behind make it more surreal. Mind you if the pics are talking to you now you may be overdoing things...

[Kerry Bergman]

Goosebumps Richard. I so love the culture in London and you have captured it to perfection. Awesome! Fav for me

[Jie Zhou]

interesting shot. i wonder how it would've looked if the two in the background took one more step into each other.

[Kirsty]

Awesome! Amazing! Incredible!

[Brian Baptie]

[LeeBo]

Gotta love street performers!

[Ulpi]

Wow amazing image! Fav for me and congrats on the pp

[Lara Zinn]

I am so impressed that you can take pictures like that where you live... here in Germany is basically impossible... I hear "NO s" everywhere I go... I get so happy when I manage to place someone in one composition... my whole album is basically absent of people... (it makes me sad :(

By the way... enough of rambling... love all of the pics... wonderful work!

[Lara Zinn]

If you don´t mind... this is one of the very few shots I was able to manage from a stranger passing by... but she did complain!
I said... "Sorry, but you walked into my photo!!!"... lie... I was purposly waiting for her but disguising very well ;P
