5th place
Rasta Man
by Penelope

I caught this guy at the airport. One of the guys in a rock band who was on the same flight as me.
I had him framed for 10 mins, hoping that he would turn his head.
And then he did :-)

Excellent! Just enough light on the profile to separate it from the background.

Amazing photo, Penelope. You even captured the glint in his eye! Nice work. Bev

Lol, no fans here, and they were flying Ryanair 'no frills' so I guess they were a band on the way up rather than somebody famous. He didnt notice me because the famous swivel lens made it look as if I was just fiddling with my camera. It's great for candid shots!

i think i'd be too chicken pointing the camera at him for that long, hehe... awesome portrait, penelope! you happen to know what band he was in? on my flight to atlanta i was surrounded by half of the salt lake city community college cheerleading team... that was interesting too, lol
