stuny Posted August 16, 2015 Share #2 Posted August 16, 2015 Terrific, even if he has the wrong brand of camera. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwpics Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share #3 Posted August 16, 2015 Terrific, even if he has the wrong brand of camera. Well, I could maybe change it in PS but it would be against my principles, and my PS ability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauledell Posted August 17, 2015 Share #4 Posted August 17, 2015 Gerry, A fine picture of the misguided gentleman who was dressed quite well. Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
likalar Posted August 18, 2015 Share #5 Posted August 18, 2015 I like this very much; a fine, well-dressed "modern" subject in stark contrast to the historic stonework textures. B & W was a good choice here. Larry P.S. We see similar beards on the commerce streets here in San Francisco, but the owners are more likely dressed for a picnic. This man is sharp!

Brenton C Posted August 20, 2015 Share #6 Posted August 20, 2015 I like the way that beard also brings a connection to the past. Wish I could grow one like him! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hlockwood Posted September 1, 2015 Share #10 Posted September 1, 2015 It appears that this "well-dressed" man is wearing pants made skinny by pinning. Have I misinterpreted his creases? HFL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkCambridgeshire Posted September 13, 2015 Share #11 Posted September 13, 2015 Amusing photo … Back in the early 60s in the UK when young men wore similar Italian style/cut suits, the short jackets were called, 'bum freezers' and the shoes were 'winkle pickers'. Looks like he may have a 'slim Jim' tie too? But back in the 60s few young men in the towns outside London would carry umbrellas … they were strictly for the luvvies but cannot mention the name used at that time. dunk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HFL I think ,maybe you have, but I am not 100% sure. I think they are just very well pressed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
