The "Hobo"

My young daughter didn't want me to photograph this old "hobo", as she called him, in Central Park, New York in May. With a little correction work I quite like the result, apart from the dark shape behind his head.

I quite like this portrait, it shows that he has had a hard life on the streets. It's the scraggy beard, long matted hair and the eyes that make it.

Very good shot
