Aperture: 8
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/250

Shot in New Orleans during the Labor Day weekend gay pride. I saw a lot of people with even less clothes, but for the candid topic, I felt this one was more or less on target.

One of my top five this week. This image has such a natural and candid touch. Great job.

I quite like this photo...it's a bit shocking,,,leaves a lot ot ponder,,what was visible in the front,,and the business man in the background is also a nice contrast to this casual guy.

That seems nearly naked to me. For being partly shaded, the subject comes through very well, with good color. (enhansing filter?) 8 Swash

Hmmmm, overalls in what looks like a city. That is too funny. Good focus and use of light. karmat

Interesting. I'm glad you were behind him instead of in front.
09/06/2002 09:19:00 AM
just say no to crack
09/06/2002 06:24:00 AM
lol.. this is great... :) The concept is most excellent for this challenge... my only critique would be a slithg compositional adjustment... i think he would be better framed on the right side of the image rather than the left... good shot! = 7 - jmsetzler

What makes this shot interesting is the guy in the back ground. I like this image because it is well contained visually.

great captured event - lol! 9 sgtpeppa

I particularly like that there is a guy in a suit in the background.
09/05/2002 11:21:00 AM
very disturbing but a nice cameo
09/05/2002 10:11:00 AM

Jeez, I can't believe he's walking around like this.
09/03/2002 09:02:00 PM
eww!
mood captured - redneck makin' a (second?) trip to the liquor store?
sincerity of expressions - again, eww!
09/03/2002 05:30:00 PM
quite an outfit. ;-)
09/03/2002 11:29:00 AM
OMG does he have undies on??? ehehehe - cute catch
09/03/2002 10:12:00 AM
that is so sick, but good capture.
09/03/2002 08:27:00 AM
The juxtaposition of the guy in the suit, and this guy, is the first thing that struck me about this shot! What are the odds??! I like it. lhall-8
09/03/2002 08:05:00 AM
great shot. seems like a practical guy. (9) ~mcmurma
09/03/2002 07:14:00 AM
If this guy is the town handyman, I want to know the town! ha ha
09/03/2002 06:30:00 AM
eww lol definitely a local culture slice of life
09/03/2002 12:23:00 AM
This image makes me laugh so each time I look at it. Good image, too. 9 Journey

Nice candid shot. Would have benefit of having the subject more separated from the back ground. 6
09/02/2002 05:03:00 PM
interesting shot.
09/02/2002 12:10:00 PM
Where's the fashion police when you need them!!??
09/02/2002 11:12:00 AM
Great photo! Nice composition and subjects. I like the contrast of the man with the overalls and the man with the suit walking in the background.
09/02/2002 08:47:00 AM
One wonders if the front view of this person might be perhaps even more candid! Made me smile - good shot!
09/02/2002 08:33:00 AM
