A photo from my wanderings around Portobello Market this afternoon. I walked past this Cafe in which this man was sitting and the scene immediately caught my eye. Kneeling in the doorway I took a few photographs of him until a really grumpy waitress basically told me to piss off. Charming woman; no wonder the bloody place was empty except for the subject. However, yes, I do understand that what I was doing could be annoying to some people. Still, she didn't have to be such a meany : (

I'm loving this B&W photography by the way. It really does make you think more about light and the contrast in a photo. Thanks again, Kyle.

Taken at 40mm, F/4.0, Shutter Speed 1/640 and ISO-400. Almost unnoticeable curve adjustment in Photoshop.
