Its a good capture, probably he wanted to see more of himself and less the walls and surroundings LOL... Nice shot to go with your words "One Man Stands" :)

Armani Fuschia from Israel

People don't like "Art" you see? I wonder, was he really disappointed? Does he feel now that you have cheated him? Used him?

@Armani Fuschia: yes,he was disappointed :( but he was happy and proud knowing that he was being photographed,cuz they rarely stand a chance for that
