portrait of stranger #67

Sorry for posting an old photo but I have not had time to take many pictures lately. This amiable stranger was sitting and smoking in Cuba and I likes his expression and his tobacco-yellow moustache!

@cirasj @stimuloog @tosee thank you very much. @mbrutus @tosee the old man was seating in front of that beautifully coloured wall. No merit on my part!

[M. Brutus]

@caterina You're too modest. You took the photo. You took advantage of an advantageous situation. By your logic, God made the rocks, the sky and the clouds, why give Ansel Adams any credit for the photograph?

[Caterina]

@mbrutus you are so funny!

[Caroline]

I love your portraits! You really capture the character of your subjects.

[M. Brutus]

Congratulations! Did you see that this photo won FIRST PLACE in the Portrait Challenge on the other website. You see. You modesty turns out to be false, AFTERALL. Congratulations.
