Believe it or not, despite being older and smaller than this guy, I shot this with a 35mm lens while I kept talking to him.

Nice tits! And plenty of 'em! A recurrent theme, in many manifestations, here at the peep (people) foto forum.

Nicely positioned for a brilliantly sunny, noon-ish time-o-day, got- no-options-for posing kinda portrait. What guts you got, dude. Can I surmise you leave the 7 at home when working this particular neighborhood?... t

he's got tits ( as t says, lots of them) but you got balls. I know you like to work in close but just what is your cousin doing with the car parts? My respect goes out to you and your photos, they hold my interest for quite some time. No way my resolve comes close. L

is this one of those boxers or briefs questions?

I like that shot, Jeff. I'll bet if you go back and give him a copy all of his friends would want you to take their pictures too. Nothing wrong with being known as an OK guy in those neighborhoods. There is a possibility that the guy doesn't have too many pictures of himself and he might be quite jazzed by this one. For one of my ongoing projects, I took a picture once of a reforming crank-head who had been living in a bus. When I gave him a copy he was so thrilled and grateful. It was the only picture he had of himself (unlike us who sometimes point cameras at ourselves.) I was surprised by his reaction and pleased that I could have done that for him. one of those random act of kindness things, I guess...

Why does this shot remind me of Eisie's famous shot of Joseph Geobbles (sp), Hitler's propaganda minister? His left eye seems to look off to his left while his right eye seems to be staring at me. Or my monitor needs upgrading. Oddly, I like the light fixture in the upper-left, too. Interestingly, I also like that I can't see what's in his left hand. That it is hidden makes my imagination tell me that it's a monky wrench. By the way, do you have life insurance?

This guy just does not get enough Winnie the Pooh in his life.
