pull down to refresh

Today I am back with a set of photographs that I took as part of my dynamic where I approach strangers on the streets and ask them if I can take their photos, on this occasion I ran into this gentleman who caught my attention because he was walking and wearing an unusual outfit so I decided to approach him and he very kindly gave me his permission to take some photos.

To my surprise, the gentleman was very kind and participative, he was very excited about the idea of the photos and did different poses for the camera, he was quite a character!

I asked him about the accessories in his hands and he told me that he had made them himself, quite an artist!

At that moment he told me, take a photo of the tie too:

I asked him why he dressed like that and he replied that he liked to dress in formal attire and that he had up to 8 outfits to make combinations, how cool!

Then I told him to hold the hat and he made this military-style pose:

At that moment the gentleman told me, now take a photo of me showing the shoes, not just anyone has these, and he proceeded to crouch down for us to take this photo:

All the photos were taken with my Canon R8 camera, a 50mm lens at 2.8/f and only natural light.

At the end of this super spontaneous "photo session" the gentleman was very happy with his photos and so was I because I had always wanted to run into a character like that on the streets, one that is different from what I normally do.

I hope you liked the photos as much as we did and thanks for so much!
