Another Chance

Where last Tuesday I didn't know his name and he was the first person I actually asked if I could take his picture. Today he was back and as I left work he said "look I have my whole uniform on today". I said it was to bad I didn't bring my camera but don't be surprised if I don't come back. As you can see I did and I'm so glad I got another chance with the nerves gone. Last week coat, scarf and gloves. Today the temperature rose to 70. Oh, his name is Earnest and he has been with the Salvation Army 21 years.
I asked when he'd be back and he said " I go where they need me "so I went across the street to Walmart and printed him a few shots.

Had two shots that I really liked so the other I dropped in my extra album

Thanks so much for dropping by.
What a nice thing to do. Great portrait.
