Last Sunday, as I walked in the town center of Setubal I saw this guy and I thought I should make some pictures of him.
However, my available camera was the G9 and it was a few meters away in the boot of the car.
I grab the camera and I made these shots.
The lady just got in the picture saying: "Photograph me, photograph me with him..."

This guy is usually in another place of Setubal and I had seen him before always with those glasses. He was covered with mud - yes, MUD - and standing under direct Sun.
Unfortunatelly I had not the camera in the car.
I hope I get him before Winter comes...

My type of pictures....spent lots of time on New York streets but these have a more local market feel....
The reflection on the glasses intrigued me......I cut it out to see the reflected scene.....I found that by resizing by 500% (adding pixels) I could see the people, but not you the photographer.....was surprised that resizing reveals more detail than just zooming.....
Good Pictures.....enjoyed.... -

Funny idea that one. Crop to 500 % :) -

Since you have a dull background, you could have reduced depth of fileld and blurred the background to make this guy standout.
even the croud which has been blurred out would provide a nice colorful background.
Pictures a nice and colorful -
