Crosswords

This gentleman was sat in Lincoln's Inn Fields minding his own business doing the crossword.

I asked if I could take his photograph. He said yes, and there were no cross words between us.

I told him that my favourite ever crossword clue is "ggse 9,4" and he laughed when I told hm the answer. You will too!!

Passing the time of day with strangers is a good thing.

Nice snap - without any snapping! GGSE.... hmmm.......

I just googled ggse - very funny, but I won't spoil it for others.

Lincoln's Inn Fields - very nostalgic for me. Were the girls playing netball? Nice, interesting shot of this chap so engrossed in his puzzle, wonderful how he remained so relaxed and natural.

[Sheralee S]

I'm hopeless with cryptic crosswords! So nice of him to oblige, wonderful shot.

[Cathy Donohoue]

Wonderful composition.

[Leonie Mogridge]

Very obliging fellow. I had to google it as well!!

[KWind]

A lovely street shot. I admire your ability to approach people and snap their image. I'm not good at crosswords but I'm off to goggle your "ggse" so I can get in in the joke too.

[Vesna]

Good photo.

[Lee]

Good shot. puts me in mind of my Granddad, 30 years ago.

[Pat Knowles]

I had to google it too! Clever & I like your picture of the crossword man!!! he is keeping his brain active...good for him!

[Fanny Brogden]

Well I am so stupid I can't even find it on Google but am sure it must have something to do with horses......obviously!! Lovely shot and play on words!!

@seanoneill grrrrrrrrrrrrr :))

[MaryBeth Dailey]

I have no clue about that clue! I don't do crosswords. I love words and would not mind doing some, but not much free time on my hands. My mom did them...loved them. I wonder if the coming generations will do them at all? That is why I like this shot...shows what may be a dying art.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

Okay, Sean and Fanny.. @fannyb I STILL don't get it and I checked out that link...POSER? GGSE 9,4? What? I am dumb. Sigh.

[Fanny Brogden]

@espyetta scroll down the link to where someone says....not that old chestnut again....then think!!:))

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@fannyb Fanny..thanks! Sean went over to another pic of mine and explained it! But thank you so much!

[Jocasta]

Much enjoy your street photography - and cryptic clues

[Ann Jones]

Ha ha, love the pun and the shot! Haven't a clue about 'ggse 9,4' though!

[Cally]

The answer made me roll my eyes. I hate cryptic crosswords. Can do others though. I like the portrait of this guy though. It looks great in b&w.

[Michel Dumas]

Nice candid shot
