`My photo buddy and I were on our way to the habor of Antwerp. We decided to have a rest and a diner in a restaurant. Next to us was a man sitting, desperate for some contact. We had a chat, something to eat and of course some photos. A pleasant start of the evening.

Not sure which one of the 3 this is, but there are several story-telling options here!

Indeed Cookie, I want to expand my story, which will happen very soon. The main story is the main, his 'extra" behaviour is another one... the sigaret waiting for the first "legal" moment. a.s.o. 'm not going to tell the total story. It's good for the viewers fantatsy.
Thanks Cookie for your marvelous comment.

Interesting image, not only the writing man with his jewelry, but also what's on the table, an empty beer glass, spilled snacks, a partly smokes sigaret, and some small change.

Wonderful capture and that was so very kind of you to chat with him as he could have been lonely and just need a friend to talk to.

Yes, he certainly needed someone to talk too. Because the conversation was partly in Dutch and partly in French, I have to say that most of the talking was done with Kristina, she speaks fluently Dutch, French, English and many other languages.

Thank you so much Rick. What a very nice comment. I got today the suggestion to make a B/W version of this capture. Something I might do. Probably it will become a better photo that way.

Thank you. He was writing down his email-adress. However, the adress isn't correct so he won't receive his picture.

Two things fascinate me here...his concentration on what he's writing and the rings on his fingers. Also, do you think he may smoke cigarettes frequently? His fingers appear to be slightly yellow! Such detail in this scene Pierre, and you've captured it perfectly. A fine work indeed!

Lovely shot - though I think the black and white version appeals to me better

I actually see this photo differently, To me this man is not seeking "contact." One of my favorite captures that I have seen in your amazing gallery. I wish you had entered it into my challenge, "Mystery Man." Might have been the winner. Keep watching...I like to do similar challenges and this photo certainly "captures" my attention.
