Taken in Kinsale, Ireland in September this year. As we were touring the small town, we came upon this gentleman, apparently between gigs. Gary

Very good Gary. Beautiful color work. And I like the way his right leg plays against his guitar(?).

Thanks Voss. There is definitely a story to be told here. Someone asked me about removing the cup , fork and trash. I told him I thought that is part of the story. Did he eat his cup of soup/coffee and then fell asleep? Look at the mud on his shoes and his pants tucked into his socks. Gary

Great shot! The color is perfect, as Voss already mentioned, the lines with the leg and guitar really make the composition.

A great shot. If mine I would have cropped the plastic fork and cup.

I agree. Removing them crossed my mind as well. But they ARE a part of the scene, and are therefore important.

Terrific photo. I wonder how it would look in b&w?

In reality, how many snoozing "passer's by" do we see in the "neat and tidy, everything's picked up" spaces around town. Another important element is the gradient of the red color of the bench from sunlight to shadow.

Removing the debris crossed my mind, and then continued .......
