I saw Angel while I was prowling the area around my office looking for strangers to shoot. He immediately agreed to let me take his photo, but I didn't explain properly and he kept on raking, so I asked him to look into the camera. He struck this great pose, and I snapped it quickly. Unfortunately, in my haste I gave him a tree growing out of his head. But it's not too horrible, IMO.

 

To be honest, I didn't want to get Angel into trouble by taking too much of his time. So, I very quickly explained the project, handed my ID slip to him so he could find his portrait, and moved on.

 

Angel, if you're seeing this, sorry it took me so long to finish the roll of film and get it uploaded here!
