Man in Hat
Saw this chap approaching dialling on his mobile and I had to take a shot, soon as I did he looked up and I knew I"d been sussed. Moving swiftly on I was pleased with the final result.

Great street shot. Love the light on the frames of his glasses.
Best wishes,
Andrew

I agree with them others. I also agree with Giulio's cropping suggestion.

A cracker! A well deserved POTW.
May I ask what lens you used?

Thanks everybody for your kind comments and in reply to Simonmac, the lens was the 50-200mm WR which came with the 18-55mm WR as part of the Pentax K30 package deal... I only used it because of the damp sometimes raining conditions and have now traded in as part exchange for the Pentax K 3-11 but decided to keep the 18-55WR lens. Looking back in hindsight maybe I"ve traded the wrong one!!!

Fantastic photograph, really good. The facial expression is captivating, but I also like the scale rule sticking out of his bag, well I guess he's an architecture student then!

Great street portrait - a worthy POtW and another gold star for the wonderful K30 which seems to get a lot of criticism on here.
