Wynn the Merciless by vikdaddy

Wynn the Merciless

What a busy day - the complete opposite from yesterday. I did a lot around the house, and then visited my friend John Wynn. I did a shoot with John on day 12 of this project, and he's a really interesting subject. John is quite eccentric and has a face with real character, so I did a mini shoot of him in his workshop.

I chose this for my picture of the day; it was a close call as there was a few photos I was happy with. John has a collection of unusual headgear, and this apparently is a genuine pilot's leather helmet from many years ago. I'm sure there'll be a few more shoots with my good friend John over the coming months.

I'm back at work tomorrow. I don't mind too much because the weather has been awful today - torrential rain that will probably last for a few more days. Only two days at work though until it's the weekend!

And I agree with Huston, definitely looks like Murdock from the A-Team movie.

That's such a wonderful "vintage-looking" photo! You're right...his face has a lot of character, and you did a nice job of capturing that!
