You find the most interesting characters! Great candid!

I love all the little details - the socks (obviously), the pigeon, the bike lock, the date on the bench, the quirky angle of his feet. Brilliant!

It's not just the pink socks, it's the blue shirt and stripey jumper that really make for a sartorial statement ;-)
and the brown shoes ..

A very European photo. Absolutely beautiful composition, colors, and depth of field. A photo that definitely draws you in.

Nice of him to leave a scrap or two for the flying scavengers. He reminds me of Elvis Costello back in the 80's :) Love the depth of field in this one too. Nice street shot!

what a lovely character,love his garb:) hope his life is just as colorful as his clothes:)

This is an extraordinarily well seen character and companion. There are several odd details that make this scene powerful (besides the pink socks and the bird). I particularly like the seemingly useless lock on the bench and the way he wears his tie.

Helooks as a prototype of a geek, unmatched clothing, short tie, rolling a cigarette this is an hilarious image, and I love it.

Beautifully taken shot Meral, great Autumn colours here - even the pigeon! Your shots are documenting the style of today, and I find it interesting that a particular body language also seems to be in fashion - most guys would not be seen sitting with their toes pointing inwards like this 2 years ago!!
Joe Adams Photography (20 months ago | reply)
oh such style and color! Meral this is so very rich!

Oh my, what was he thinking when he dressed that morning? Love the way the two figures frame him!!!
Frecklenose (20 months ago | reply)
So stylish :) I definitely recognize a glimpse of London's eclecticism. Love his 'protective' pose, feels like he's waiting for the pigeon to steal his lunch :)

and incidentally the guy has pigeon toes too :) awesome capture!!
She Said Unprintable Things (20 months ago | reply)
I love it. This man looks like he carefully has everything in place, even a proper dosage of joy with this pink socks. And how amazing, the way he has his toes! And his pigeon friend comes over! : )
Endearing scene, with beautiful color. : )
