Would be good if you could a more frontal view of his face when he is licking his thumb, make it more easy to see what he is doing….easier said than done.

Fine shot also.

Thats great Dee. I have one up here of him also but yours is better :). Hard not to take a photo of him I think. Iconic Cork street character called
Michael O’Regan.

Was in town this afternoon and he just as well wrapped up with the same hat :)

Keep up the street work. Only really getting into it myself :)

I like the angle because i can read the text in hand..also i think the square frame is right for this (maybe cos it complements the square-ish hat.)
nicely taken.

Saw him myself on Christmas Eve when I was in town. I took a few of him. I wish they came out better. He came over talking to me and posed for me! He also asked that I give him a copy so I must print it out and bring it home next time I am back. Really like your picture. Well done.

It’s a nicely processed shot. Like to see a bit more of the expression on his face though. Crop some of the space on his right.
