After a refreshing pint of IPA in "The Portsmouth Brewery" we came across this gentleman yesterday.
He told us it was National Poetry Week and then proceeded to entertain us with a poem about a local kid.
While my wife and daughter were entranced, I sneaked away to take this shot of him:

He certainly looks the part of a wild poet :thumb

    He's a great looking character and the exposure in difficult midday light is good. I'd consider cropping upper left to bring us closer to him and get him a little off center.
    If not now, when?

    Yes, it's hard to get the exposure just right in that kind of direct sun. I wished I'd had a flash with me because a bit of fill would have been useful.

    Been trying some other crops as well and I kinda like this one.....

    That's just what I had in mind.
