I really like his expression. The other guy being a little blurry also works great.
Nice work.

Yes, I think I must do! No, I've always found musicians very interesting as photographic subjects... particularly those who play in the street. They don't have a barrier of a stage between them and a potential audience, hence they put themselves very much on the line. It takes great strength of character, I reckon! I also like it when musicians have a degree of aesthetic beauty, be they male or female, because I like to try to try to recreate the feel of old photographs taken in Paris or Rome in which beautiful people would be pictured in their environment in a rather 'romantic' way. I have no interest in taking fashion photographs of models, but I do enjoy photographing 'the beautiful people' in a naturalistic setting...

Naw, this one is amazing...it reminds me of the work of the greats from the earlier 20th century period - one of the classic shots from one of my dozens of photography books. The blurry man entering the shot makes it. I would maybe crop slightly on the left and top to make it even tighter but it really works well. Mark

Love this, you captured the moment. I think the "intruder" sets the contrast between the busy street environment and the introspective musician.

Excepcional street photo, e estou de acordo com Anna, aliás a tua explanação posterior, que em minha opinião seria desnecessária, mas entendo que para alguns seja, como dizia eu, a imagem do vulto que passa transforma uma photo comum numa photo excelente!
Parabéns Patrick (7+)
Abraço
Eduardo

It's always interesting for me to read differing opinions about my photographs, but in this case Anna I have to agree with you. The moment I was responding to was this rather handsome chap playing great accordion music in the middle of a busy shopping street. He seemed to me to be 'out of time'... like he'd steppped off the set of an old movie. I wanted to convey this difference by including something of the bustle of the crowd around him, hence the importance of the blurred passer-by on the right of the image.

Potentially a great shot, but I wish the guy on the right wasn't intruding...
