Thanks Coldfuse - two comments out of ninety view kinda says I should avoid candids :D
#6 is a good capture - but the absorbed worry in #1 is good too - clearly had a hard week, that chap! Nice set :thumbs:

Nice pics no,4 is my favourite he looks deep in thought. The man with bushy hair made me smile, do they not have barbers.:lol:
If that last one is a reflection.... how come it is the same way round? :thinking:
Double reflection? a prism? PS?
Woodman for me btw.

Now there are "great" candids, especially the last one, it's not obvious which two are the real blokes.

Well you got me, I thought it was the one on the right because it looked less distorted. Nice job!
Excelent captures, one and all :) 1, 2, 4, and 6 for me with 2 coming out tops for the facial expression, feeling of solitude and the passing of one circumstance to another :thumbs:

I like candids, a nice set, unusual reflection in no6 but I especially like no.2, for the composition and great expression on the guys face.:thumbs:

Cheers P-E and Galaxy66 comments much appreciated - patience has never been a virtue of mine :D I'll learn :bonk:
these are great. Like many others, 2 and 6 are my favourites, they each have something different about them.
