A chimney sweep from the Festival Of Christmas in Portsmouth.

Nice capture Alby
Shame about the bright orange bit at the bottom though, you would of thought he could of been more considerate where he stood

Sorry AJ but the whole background kills it for me.
Perhaps you'd have lost the props, but personally Id have gone for a headshot with the brush, and dropped the DOF right back.
Jmo of course.

Should have been a great picture, Alby but I have to agree the background is "all wrong"

Yeah I know the background isn't good but unfortunately it was where he was, I shot this @ 1/20 f:2.8 on my panasonic and was surprised at the DOF ;( Still he's quite a character I suppose. Thanks for all your comments though peps
