With brows like that he could be a Sequeira.

I think I saw this dude again two nights ago in a noodle restaurant in Shoreditch. Only it was hard to tell without the hat.

looks like lead singer of Green Day

Update!
I just saw this guy on the front page of a music magazine. Either he is Pete Doherty, some London-based rock star bad-ass dude - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pete_Doherty - or else the resemblance, and fondness for posing for photos with the danging cigarette, is uncanny.

prps k. what a fucking circus those shows are.
rustovision [deleted] (91 months ago | reply)
excellent portrait, I've got to add that this is one of the best shots of Pete I've seen and what makes it even more incredible is that it was a chance encounter on a street!
WorkisPlayisWork (91 months ago | reply)
wasted! But that's what good ol' Pete is all about..

this is fantastic
sarahfelicity (86 months ago | reply)
I was there. I'll vouch for him. It was one of those god-given photographer moments, and god bless kk+, he seized it.
cecillielopata (84 months ago | reply)
you took shot of Pete Doherty ? without even knowing it was him? lucky you :D
lackofcolor (83 months ago | reply)
very cool. love the colours, the expression. although it's not the most visually aesthetic in his case, it's definitely a favourite.

Do you work for a magazine?
Kris Krug (82 months ago | reply)
Hey Ian. I don't work for a magazine... I work at Bryght. From time to time my stuff does get picked up by various publications though. This one was used in the Tramway brochure...

Love it and yes it too reminds me of Billy Joe (lead singer of Green Day)...
carrobarro (78 months ago | reply)

Kris Krug (78 months ago | reply)
sometimes i get paid and sometimes i don't. tramway didn't pay me in this case.
by the way - yesterday scales told me that pete doherty got arrested 45 times in 2006. anyone up for 46 times with me this year? pete?
Harriet Floaty (77 months ago | reply)
Hi there.
What a fabulous photo...I run the fashion pages of a student newspaper in Bristol. For our march issue we're writing about pete doherty and his style, could we use your photo if we credit you - (I noted the copyright notes?)
Would be grateful if you could post a reply!
Thanks
Harriet
Kris Krug (77 months ago | reply)
