Man I love Toronto.

Sweet pic!

nice capture Carl!

from the looks of him a tune from Tull comes to mind.

"Living In the Past", perchance? Good flute action in that one.

Very nice capture. I'd like a tiny bit less contrast to get some more shadow detail, especially around the eyes. You say he is blind; somehow that makes it even more important. :thumbup: Very wonderful image, Carl.

Thank so much for all your kind words. I appreciate them all.
LaFoto...I have never really tried much street photography. Something makes me nervous about it. Gheesh.. I have been kicked out of cemeteries, so, I can see some dude running out of a shoe store and threatening me with a ladies high heel , if I somehow catch his store front in my pic or something.
Bace....there were 4 street musicians at Spadina and Queen Saturday. The other 3 did not compare to this guy.

Thanks again all

Oh Chiller! This is awsome. I love everything about this photo, from the wrinkles on his forehead to..well everything!! LOL

We share this feeling then!
But have you seen my sausage vendor on here in the General Gallery?
Something all rare for me to do, like pointing my 200mm zoom at people and taking their photo unawares. But "my model" (not knowing about it) complied nicely and smiled a very friendly smile in the second of two pics.
