he was so cute ;)

but really... cute and pretty pushy

He approached me to take a picture of him and his friend, waving with the cigarette in front of my face. As I was trying to step away a bit, he was trying to get closer so I could hear him well

Cool photo. Nice one.

That's a great portrait Maria. Do any of you other guys get people coming up for portraits during a shoot? Couple of days ago I was taking a sunset shot over a local building with an interesting roofline when a young guy came up and asked me to take his picture, which I did. They were nothing special but when I showed him in the LCD he got really excited and pleaded with me to find him on Facebook. Somehow I managed to do that but now he's convinced he's a male model and keeps pestering me to do a proper shoot with him!

Aww

Why was he so eager to have his picture taken?

Now that's a face with a few stories to tell! (Maybe clone out that little bit of power-pole crossbar near his head?)

Thanks for nice words!

Usually people don't ask me directly, they just keep looking in the camera and asking me with their eyes: "Would you please take a picture of me?" Others, not so nice and modest, are pretty persistent in "Just one more!"

He probably doesn't have a photograph of him and his friend. He probably doesn't have much photographs at all. He kept telling me: "Just send me the photo and I'll pay, I'll pay right now if you want. Just take a picture".

What power pole!?

It's interesting how I didn't notice that at all! Thank you!

Awesome pic, I for one rearry rearry rikes it!! I must say I was expecting my picture though

I do however hope you'd gift him a print. I gift copies to anyone who I feel isn't in a condition to have a decent photograph of themselves.. It's such an amazing feeling to have them look at their own pictures, so happy and so surprised. :sillysmi:

really? 6am-9pm work!? Yesterday my boss called me for a meeting in like 15 minutes before the end of the working time so I had to stay a half an hour overtime! Can you imagine!!?

I can consider myself lucky, I usually don't work overtime and my working hours are 7am-3pm.
