The Golden Boy by lesip

The Golden Boy

Passed this street performer while walking the Ocean City Boardwalk. From the top of his hat to the soles of his feet he was gold. As we walked toward him he was playing his golden harmonica. All the sudden he stopped and froze Iike a statue. Started snapping shots all around him. Think I got this one crouching down and looking up. He didn't move a muscle. Placing a couple bucks in his hat he sprang to life playing his harmonica and drawing the crowd in.

Thank you all so much for your comments and encouragements.
Interesting shot, I like it

Thanks so much for your comments . I'm working from my IPad since I'm at the beach . Used an app called PhotoWizard to process it. I really love it.
