Thanks. When photographing strangers, I do my best to make them comfortable and uninhibited. It had worked until I met this man. In a touristic city at the countryside, several people were photographing a flower that was pretty close to this man.
I, as usual, didn't care about the flowers. My garden is already heavily flowered, thanks.
This man was standing on the sidewalk staring at the floor. He wasn't drunk or something like that, he justlooked extremely sad. I tried to talk, joke, make him tell me something about his life as others usualy do, but nothing. He only asked because I did not photograph the flower like the others. The original photo has a wide angle. With this crop, I can see him. Can you?
