Scarred

Been so overwhelmed with stuff happening in my life lately that it's been a couple of weeks since my camera even came out of its bag. But today I decided to take a small detour down to the harbour, and an extra 15 minutes of time when I went to put in petrol. The harbour is pretty quiet on a Saturday. It's not fishing season now so no trawler fishermen around ... just the maintenance crews working on the trawlers during the week and a few odd characters at the weekend. This man was sitting with a beanie covering his head and part of his face. When I asked him for a photo exactly like I had asked the people nearby, he looked suprised but agreed. Once I took a photo and showed him the LCD screen, he was so excited he whipped off the protective beanie and asked for another shot to be taken to "show the real me" he said.
How wonderful!

@narayani Thank you. This one made me feel good. I felt like I had made a positive difference in the life of this one man, even if momentarily.
