Portrait of a man

Portrait of a man

Walking the streets of Fordsburg, waiting outside a men's barber shop, I chanced upon this man. 

Who beckoned to me, called me over, asked me to take a shot of him.

His cell-phone was dead, there was no-one on the other side, yet he talked and had this long conversation ... for my benefit ... as I took this shot.

I showed him the image. He smiled. Laughed actually. 

And we went our separate ways.

    amazing! great portrait, wonderful encounter. the encounters we have with the people in the portraits we take are for me the most important part of the image - because often it's that feeling that stays with me and it's more rewarding than anything else...
