Faces of The West Coast - Deon

Had to go out to the supermarket today, so took a turn down by the harbour where I met a couple of guys doing maintenance on some of the fishing trawlers. Pity about the black ropes hanging down behind him ... just tossing around an idea of embarking on a project of street photography focusing on the faces of the local folk. I have no idea yet what I would actually do with it, but if nothing else I will surely improve my portraiture over time and might even get a few real keepers!
A great portrait Desi, why did you not clone the ropes away if they disturb you 😉

@ludwigsdiana Tried briefly to clone them in Lightroom but got frustrated how amateurish the results were by his ear so just reset it. Will give it a go in gimp later and see how I do :)

the rope right next to his ear will be problematic - I think you just need to zoom right in to see the pixels

I don’t mind the ropes - puts him in context. Lovely portrait and a great idea. It would make a good book or exhibition.

Very nice portrait and I love the idea. I think you will do very well at it.
