2-25-04 Big Ed

On the coldest of mornings and the hottest of days, my friend Big Ed pushes a broom and swings a mop through a nasty parking garage. He never complains, always has a smile and an encouraging word. Ed just told me this week he has a better job and will be leaving. I sure am going to miss the big guy, he is an inspiration to me. Just wanted to share my friend's pic with you all as my PoD.

Nikon Coolpix 3100
1/60s f/2.8 at 5.8mm iso400 with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

What a nice candid portrait! He has a beautiful smile. It would make a lovely going away momento.

Goes to prove that one does not have to earn six figures in order to feel happy. It is a state of mind.

Glad you were able to capture him on a photograph to cherish.

How nice - shame you have to lose your friend but if he's off to something better....
