Street photography


, originally uploaded by Teacher Dude's BBQ.

I first bumped into this guy this morning, quietly drinking his retsina under a tree near Kamara. He kindly agreed to let me photograph him. He told me that he was a a sea captain and had travelled the world.

Later on I saw him outside a church on Egnatia as I was rushing to work. This time I managed to get a better picture. I think he enjoyed the fact that somebody actually listened to what he said rather than just toss a few coins his way.

LOVE IT!
The picture speaks for itself but I also love the little snippet about this man's life.

I thought I'd just chat to the guy for a bit and find out a couple of things about him, make a connection.
