David,
I was in downtown looking for some sunshine (In Seattle that's exotic) and I found that guy... he was so immerse on their reading and I said -He's a very photogenic guy!, I need a picture of him- He keep walking and found their spot, just 20-30 feet away from the sign Pike Place Market and... he simple start reading.

I'm glad you like it.

This just goes to show that you can't always judge a book by its cover. *rimshot*

I wonder why he has his backbone inked on his arm...GREAT photo.
Agree about judging.
Perhaps too many people told him he didn't have a spine:-)

That's a great shot Luismr! So many contrasts.

His hair and bottom half (punk hair and baby-girl socks) don't go with his face and torso (tough guy, body-builder or con). Neither does the turned in toes pose. And who would expect a Punk to be reading Shakespeare?

Lovely breaking of stereotypes. Well done!

If you look closely you can see some other contrasts, look closer.
Thanks.
