How do you like the moustache  by onewing

How do you like the moustache

Friday people day again and I know this isn't the best picture in the world, but I saw this chap in Newcastle and had to ask him if I could take a photo of him.

He said that a few people had wanted photos of him because of his moustache.

Apparently it took him 3 years to grow it to this length and at one time it was even longer.

He was a lovely chap and very friendly.

I would like to say thank you so much to the amazing response to yesterday's Silhouettes at Sunset photo and for putting it on the PP.
There were so many replies I am sorry but I can't reply to everyone individually. Thank you all again.

I did manage to catch up with the housework yesterday though and I think I am going to need therapy now and a lie down. I have decided that I am definitely allergic to housework. ha ha.
Goodness .. what a work of art...

What a fabulous moustache! Good thing he's a friendly fellow especially if folks keep asking for his picture.
February 13th, 2015  
A very photogenic fellow. He would make a good model for a photography group
February 13th, 2015  
Interesting looking chap, very cool braids :)
February 13th, 2015  
Certainly an interesting subject!
February 13th, 2015  
What a friendly chap...nice moustache.

Love this portrait Babs and I'm with you on the housework!!

Oh good for you Babs!
February 13th, 2015  
Another of your bearded fella's Babs --but with a difference this time ! I do not like his plaited moustache ,but he has gorgeous blue eyes !! A great capture Babs !

Great capture. He certainly looks very friendly. Love your friday people shots - it always helps me get my bearing on the week. :)
February 13th, 2015  
A great capture Babs.
February 13th, 2015  
I love the way he has actually plaited the moustache! Such a character. You really do find them.
February 13th, 2015  
Superb portrait full of lovely detail Babs, it would take me a lot more than 3 years to grow one this long, lol:)
February 13th, 2015  
Great portrait. And I loved yesterday's shot. Very worthy of the PP.
February 13th, 2015  
Was he riding a Harley? Great find.
February 13th, 2015  
@julzmaioro Thanks Julia, he was very proud of it.
February 13th, 2015  
@salza He was ever so sweet and a lovely chap to talk to.
February 13th, 2015  
@ethelperry I agree, he would make a great model.
February 13th, 2015  
@hermann @beachdog @leestevo Thanks. He seemed to be in a bit of a rush as he raced past me, but when I asked him if I could take his photo he was very pleased and chatty.
February 13th, 2015  
@thistle Thanks Joyce. At least I have done the housework for a while now, ha ha. Still got to tackle the ironing though.
February 13th, 2015  
@sioux Thanks Sue. He was lovely.
February 13th, 2015  
@beryl I noticed his eyes too Beryl. It was a very sunny day and his eyes shone and just matched the colour of his T shirt.
February 13th, 2015  
@darthkitty So glad I could help with the days of the week Kat. ha ha.
February 13th, 2015  
@tonygig Thanks Tony.
February 13th, 2015  
@888rachel Thanks Rachel. Always pays to have a camera handy when interesting people walk past.
February 13th, 2015  
@pcoulson Thanks Peter. Ha ha, it would take David longer than that to grow a moustache too. He could grow a decent beard, but the moustache would look rather like a dead spider I suspect.
February 13th, 2015  
@karlow75 Thanks Kane and thanks for the congratulations on yesterday's shot too. I was amazed at the response. It was one of those right place right time shots. I took three shots as they walked past and that was it.
February 13th, 2015  
@pusspup No, more is the pity. I would have taken his photo on his Harley if it had been there. He was just walking by.
February 13th, 2015  
Great portrait shot and moustache...
February 13th, 2015  
365 and housework don't mix. Fascinating fella. I think I am getting flu so house will have to wait. Always the way when you work in a school, you get ill at half term! Typical.
February 13th, 2015  
Cool tache :-)
February 13th, 2015  
Nicd character shot
February 13th, 2015  
Great plaiting Babs....that would be a sight watching him plait his moustache! A real interesting Friday person....looks like he was pleased to partake too!
February 13th, 2015  
No I don't - but this is a great portrait and fun to see!
February 13th, 2015  
What a blue eyes. Amazing.
February 13th, 2015  
What a lovely looking guy. I love how his eyes match his t shirt.
February 13th, 2015  
This is quite a moustache! I also like that his blue eyes repeat the blue from the t-shirt. Really brings them out.
February 14th, 2015  
He looks like a very interesting fellow! Lovely portrait!
February 14th, 2015  
he has kind eyes
February 14th, 2015  
FAB!!! Love this guy ...his moustache is amazing!! Very very cool shot Babs. Well done! Love you Friday People!
February 14th, 2015  
@neatz I agree Anita, housework and 365 definitely don't mix. I am writing up my family history story for my sister at the moment too, so that is taking up a lot of time.
Hope you are feeling better soon.

@happypat Thanks Pat. Yes he was very nice and seemed quite happy that I asked him. If you look closely you can see David's reflection in the window next to him. Waiting patiently while I chatted up the bloke and took his picture, ha ha.
February 14th, 2015  
@vanesa_365 @macromover @vera365 @april16 Thanks. I noticed his eyes too, they were so blue. He was a lovely chap.
February 14th, 2015  
@annied He does Annie.
February 14th, 2015  
Nicely plaited and I love the blue eyes
February 14th, 2015  
Its quite long.
February 14th, 2015  
Awesome blues in this portrait!
February 14th, 2015  
That is too funny.....not crazy about his mustache, but I love his blue eyes!
February 14th, 2015  
This is great, Babs. That boy got character! Maybe you too should start a 100 Strangers project. ;-)
February 14th, 2015  
Now that's what I call a moustache!
February 14th, 2015  
Ha ha Talk about "Curl the mo"
February 14th, 2015  
@stray_shooter thanks Ron. I think I am past 100 now though. I have been posting 'people' photos on a Friday for over 2 years and most of them are strangers. Some I might add are stranger than others. ha ha.
February 14th, 2015  
@flyrobin @fullcircle @loweygrace @tabarlett @ceilidh @terryliv Thank you all. He was a bit of a character and lovely to have a chat to.
February 14th, 2015  
He looks and sounds like quite a character - and certainly knows which colour to wear to bring out the blue of his eyes!
February 15th, 2015  
Extraordinary. Fancy having to deal with that every day.
February 15th, 2015  
I think it's a fabulous portrait .
