As I walked past this man I couldn't help noticing his yellow beard and muddy hair and just had to take his picture.
He was happy to have his photo taken, we had a good chat, I gave him some Tanzanian shillings for some food, I wasn't too keen on shaking his hand though...you should have seen his finger nails!
Taken with the Q and 02 zoom lens

I'm not usually the greatest fan of portraits, but I love this one- great eyes.

We actually get very few portraits and even fewer good ones but this is definitely one.
Best wishes,

Andrew

Massive character in this one, it's great to see such a genuine portrait that it obviously not 'posed'.
