Burqa's and the Fat Man by andycoleborn

Burqa's and the Fat Man

Took this shot as I sat on a bench in Ilford waiting for Sangeeta who was in Boot's (a chemist store)... Viewed in large, you can clearly see the lady on the left has clocked me...

Sangeeta's best friend was coming over later in the day, and I had hoped to visit our favourite south Indian restaurant in the evening, but she didn't turn up until nearly 10pm and by then, we were too hungry to wait and had cooked something to eat...

I'm off to a colleague's wedding tomorrow, Sangeeta and friend are off to someone eles's wedding...

And on a serious note - some serious nut case has killed close to 100 people in Norway and Amy Winehouse OD'd today....
omg Andy you crack me up....oh have fun at the wedding tomorrow...is your friend on the bench eating?

great shot in so many ways - love that you've been caught by the lady on the left - and loving the little girls expression at the fat man! Brilliant!

great shot, there is so much going on here!
July 24th, 2011  
LOL I almost didn't even notice that. I was going to say something about the contrast of the women to the man on the bench & the little girl looking at him but that is too funny! So much going on here. Nice shot

@azza_l LOL... Knew I recognised him from somewhere... Just checked the original and looks like a bottle of juice... Not sure if he'd just stuffed some peanuts in his gob (probably) or was covering a burp..

She got you all right. Wow, so many contrasts in this shot, well captured.
