Awesome, amazing timing! This topic is made for you, YB. This guy really can't bear it...so sad. Truly ironic. With Mick singing "Sympathy for the Devil", ... argh! Cheers, -mikey

No honest gov' I didn't slip the guy "a few quid". I was walking past the National Portrait Gallery when I saw the potential for a shot. Within seconds the man walked by - snap.That was the first shot, I stayed there another 30 minutes but never got a shot to match it.

Just before taking this shot I had taken the one posted in Exhibition of a young man on the phone - again that shot wasn't posed, I just saw the young woman jumping into his ear!

Haha, this shot wouldn't require walking, more waiting. Quite the perfectly timed passing, then? Tell me you didn't give this guy a couple quid to walk by like that. In the US a "lose weight" sign would be an easy mark, but you'd have to wait a long while to get one humped-over person to walk in front of a "cannot bear very much reality" sign. Still, well done, in any event ":^) Cheers, -mikey

The walking has paid off cos you have the best Irony picys so far.

It ain't me gov! I'm far better looking.
Though he looks like my feet feel after walking around London looking for ironic shots.

Well done in the irony department. Is that you, YB? Looks like y'all need a brew or two? Cheers, -mikey

If that is Mick on the left, then the right must be how Keith sees Mick:) Great urban shot! -Angioman
