Canon Image Challenge 77: Rakish and Run

Create an image based on any definition of the word Rakish that appeals to you, here's a few to get you started

Rakish:
- having or displaying a dashing, jaunty, or slightly disreputable quality or appearance
- behaving and dressing in a way that is confident and slightly unusual, but attractive
- (especially of a boat or car) smart and fast-looking, with streamlined angles and curves.

From the thesaurus:
(his moustache gave him a slightly rakish look): dashing, debonair, sporty, jaunty, devil-may-care, breezy; stylish, fashionable, dapper, spruce; raffish, disreputable, louche; (informal) sharp.

Run with it.

If you find the above too limiting, take it a step further, for example putting "raffish" back into the thesaurus adds to the mix: unconventional, bohemian; casual, careless; dissolute, dissipated, debauched, decadent; (informal) flash.

The purpose of the "run" element is to avoid taking it too literally and ending up with a gallery full of character portraits. It's a sub-theme of this challenge about how a word or phrase can conjure an image in our minds that can help to develop a creative vision. But if the connection isn't obvious, do please let us know in your title or comment, the phrase or word that inspired your image.

I'll add some examples to Exhibition to help kick things off.
