As most know I do not shoot many shots of people. I was going through some old files and found these from a street preformer I ran into in New Orleans last year. He told me he had been working the streets for 25+ years. JIM

Those are great Jim. The first gives a real sense of sadness and the second a feeling of pleasant contentment. Quite a contrast, you caught two sides of this person beautifully.

His character comes through in #1's rendition.
Well done with it Jim.

#1 is a wonderful capture. There's a sense of tenderness and vulnerability that is captivating. Well done, Jim.

The other person there with me was talking to the gentleman and I believe they knew each other. It was interesting just listening to his story of working on the street. I did pay him $10.00 to get the picture. JIM

Superb pictures--today's best (maybe the week's best). It's a pity his right hand is not entirely in the frame of the second photo.
