Manhattan Mustache by alophoto

Manhattan Mustache

I snapped this quick candid as I was jostling through people on the crazy sidewalks of Times Square. Loved his fabulous handlebar 'stache. I think he caught me clicking, though, but didn't seem annoyed.
very nice candid photo and what a lovely view of Manhatten

Fun stuff! I loved the one of you that Michael took. It must have been great to have such a good guide.
June 26th, 2013  
@nana2r It was amazing. He was the BEST tour guide ever in that he was showing me the city that he knows so well and giving me photo pointers!

Thanks, guys. He was absolutely posing for me here. Probably just tired of the noise and resting on the garbage can. And tickled that someone would take his shot amidst such chaos and color. Appreciate your kind comments!

Coolness---love his smiley mustache:)
June 27th, 2013  
Great shot. I like his calmness contrasting with the crazy hustle behind him.
June 28th, 2013  
Great street shot!
June 28th, 2013  
Great shot - serendipity!! he doesn't seem to mind and looks so good calm against the busy city :)
June 28th, 2013  
@jodimuli @annethomson @dmward @pasadenarose Thank you, friends. He was a great find in the crazy bustling square. Glad he didn't make a face at me when he caught me shooting him.
June 28th, 2013  
fabulous stache - and lovely busy big city street shot!
June 29th, 2013  
Love this street shot, Amanda. He actually looks like he is posing for you.
June 29th, 2013  
@northy @darsphotos I think he saw me taking the shot and didn't mind thankfully. Thanks, ladies. I so so loved shooting in a city for a change. Wish it were more normal for me. Had to go into my city last night for our date just to experience an urban environment again. Cincy is small potatoes to NYC.
June 29th, 2013  
@amandal I bet it was just a totally different world in NYC and very fast paced. Those that live there are used to it. May be going to SF tomorrow. Where did you take a few of your photos, the Golden Gate, etc? Lost the info you told me about a ways back. It is so clear there and in the low 80's there today. Thanks a bunch.
June 29th, 2013  
@darsphotos Oh I love SF!!! We went to Cavallo Point and hiked under the bridge. Look it up online. It is in Golden Gate Park, I think (near Sausalito). Have fun. Can't wait to see your photos!
June 29th, 2013  
So fun and colorful! What a great candid!
June 30th, 2013  
This one really has the character of NY. Love it. Fav
June 30th, 2013  
@emrob Thanks, Mandy. It was so cool to see stillness among the throngs of people and craziness!!

@fueast Aw, thanks so much, Alison. I was glad he was a good sport. I had others who busted me taking their photo that actually ducked and hid from me or glared. I was digging street photography. I don't get much opportunity for that in my day to day life in the suburbs.
June 30th, 2013  
GRTEAT PORTRAIT! !! FAV for me, this is wonderful :)
July 1st, 2013  
@mrsc19 You are very sweet! Thank you, Christy. Doesn't he have a sweet face?!

Pea
Superb portrait, love the colours and vibrancy in the background. You're really making me want to go to NYC now
July 1st, 2013  
@deeganp It was amazingly wonderful. I LOVED my time there and so want to go back!! Thank you!
July 1st, 2013  
A 'stache like that is just asking to be immortalised and much as I hate to say it I'll bet you weren't his first! Cool shot - you did him justice!
July 2nd, 2013  
Lovely portrait with great DOF to still get a sense of the city behind.
July 5th, 2013  
Great candid - that's one amazing 'stache - love the city backdrop as well! : )
July 7th, 2013  
Oh, I think a moustache like that is just BEGGING to be photographed!
July 9th, 2013  
@kittikat @tabbycat @rennes @nadaa

I just had to, right. So glad that he didn't seem to mind, even seemed humored!
