La Ponytail by andycoleborn

La Ponytail

A ponytailed geezer in a crowd watching a fairly decent act in Brick Lane... There was no way I was going to tell hm how ridiculous he looked.!!

Off to the Lane again today armed with my tripod to try some more filming - Too cold to be lugging the thing about tho so took only took a few shots before dumping it in the car and wandering back up the Lane hands tucked in pockets...Will try and put another short film together later in the week.

Who he was listening too.... http://youtu.be/pO9xg-XqL34
Andy you've shot some rare and unusual sights while I've been 365ing (note it is now an accepted verb), but this is the first time I've been shocked by someone I really thought was alien. Goodness me .... I'm so glad you didn't tell him :)

Well, that sure is something. I love the shot, though!!
February 24th, 2013  
I can't tell you how much I wanna see the front now!! Great shot!

I too would love to see his face, I imagine it is fierce. great street shot and I love the band in the background
February 24th, 2013  
great shot - let's just hope he's not a 365-er then or he'll know what ypu think of his looK!!

hehehe...well by the looks of him I wouldn't try drawing his attention at all, let alone telling him his pony tail looked ridiculous! well spotted!

@m9f9l @cookie123 have just uploaded a video to youtube (link in blurb above) - at the very last second he appears (just about)

looks like an eye in the back of his head... was he a hit man??? great capture!
February 25th, 2013  
Ha ha.. I was expecting someone with harder features, he looks like a softy!!LOL

Appearances can be deceptive, he's probably a world authority in ceramics and frightened of his own shadow.

But don't bank on it!
February 25th, 2013  
hmmmmm! i'm kind of intrigued by his sense of style :)

Possibly the best haircut EVER
February 25th, 2013  
Ha, love it, hope someone tells him that his hairstyle is being seen world wide!!
February 25th, 2013  
perhaps it's a prelude to a comb-over? Brave photo - with the lack of natural dampening over his ears I would be afraid he would hear the shutter firing
February 25th, 2013  
Crazeee! Great photograph.

@davidgnc haha... thankfully the band covered any shutter sound :-)
February 25th, 2013  
haha.....a fav for me...totally put a smile on my face. pretty ridiculous hairstyle indeed - -but i don't suppose he asked ME, now, did he..!?....lol - -nice classic street shot

@andycoleborn
Just correcting a little mistake here -- ponytail is masculine so it's "Le Ponytail"
Hee

Oh. Dear. Well spotted though :)

Typical prison hair style here in Oz.
You also get a decent look at him around the 1 minute mark of the video.
