    Hi Dan......The frown was probably caused by a wannabe street shooter taking his picture.....:D The shot was taken in Tombstone .... I thought if I put Tombstone, everybody would think, not another Tombstone pic.rolleyes1.gif

    Thanks for looking, Dan........ AKA azzaro.... AKA red

    He does have a frown on his face. His eyes are looking one way and the girls eyes are looking the other way. I like how you caught that -- and neither are looking at you thumb.gif

    Good choice going bw on this one thumb.gif

    What I find interesting and really draws me into the image and makes me think is mostly his height.

    he seems so much shorter than all around him, but he is wearing a hardhat. Makes me think of a construction worker in a wheelchair coming from a job site.... Just a bit of juxtaposition.

    Thanks for looking and commenting.....The picture was taken in Tombstone AZ.. In the late 1800s it was a mining town.... Today they cater to tourists.
    There were a couple of guys with hard hats on handing out pamphlets about the mines and were giving tours...and that is what he was doing.
    He was in a wheelchair and I shot him that way.....I didn't like the picture, it portrayed him as handy capped, so I cropped out the wheelchair.... Maybe it was to much reality for me........THANKS AGAIN AZZARO

    I agree that this is better without seeing the wheelchair. Like I said made me think about it and use my imagination to fill in the gaps.
    Of course he could f simply been very short, or standing in a hole, or crossing the street whie everyone around him was on a boardwalk, or....
