Stellar shots, Diz! I love the second and third. The black leather jacket clad dude....very stoic...I get the feeling from his disposition, he's only out there because he has to be to put food on the table. The closeup portrait is classic. All those "experience" lines on his face! Great to have willing models...and you capitalized on it. I love the dog shot...excellent background with the pavers!

Well done, chap!

Relly cool pics, Mike. Love the antique stalls. Here we call them flea markets, tho. When it's not hot weather I love to go puttering around in them. And I love that dog. He's one of the prettiest border collies I've seen and I see a lot of them at dog shows. Keep up the good work.

aww..yet again these are amazing..you have captured the busyness as well as the mood of the scene..looking at their wares..i might be interested in some of Bennie's stuff..but the tight shot of Eddie is my fave in the set..the b&w treatment really brings the shadows and lines of his face..bet he could give you a run for your money for telling stories..lol..

Note: why do you have to post when i am about to sleep? haha..

This is some of your best b/w work Mike, beautifully captured and presented, but what do they say. Charlie has heard it all before but still listens like it was the first time , Bernie reflects, looks at the neck of a Gibson and thinks what if, Eddie is wise and Mutters is hungry.
James looks tired and needs that coffee and Kevin is a geezer, and textiles is bored and is looking forward to the weekend. Great set Mike, I like them all but Charlie shades it, and if doesn't shade it, he'll get one in for you by this time next week
