She explained that it wasn't a religious thing, they can be photographed in hijab but she was uncomfortable about her photo being online.

There are a lot of bike folk on CDPB: Gabriola, Arona and ex-Izmir to name but three.<BR/><BR/>From you photo, Ann, this chap appears to be very fit and probably healthy. As he is a bit old for acne, I also gather that he nicked himself shaving.<BR/><BR/>I like the fact that you approached a Sikh after your meat-carrier turned you down. Well done. It is not YOU as a person they are rebuffing; it is the idea of having their photo taken. They probably approach many things in their life negatively.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09513648613788716017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025185028400769912.post-23251182024041103492009-01-20T10:19:00.000+11:002009-01-20T10:19:00.000+11:00I like it.

It may not tell us too much about the person, or it may.... there's a lot that can be read into his demeanour.<BR/><BR/>I walked home 5k from the bike shop yesterday, and did not see ONE person within shouting distance. Sometimes it's nice not living in a city, but not when you are trying to photograph people!<BR/><BR/>I'm going to have to tackle the bike mechanic when I pick it up!bitingmidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12593806233011328620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025185028400769912.post-15837864389322368002009-01-20T09:53:00.000+11:002009-01-20T09:53:00.000+11:00Pure luck.

Really annoying that anyone I consider would make an interesting shot says no. <BR/><BR/>Don't know what it is at the moment, have stopped taking my herbal HRT supplement to give my body a rest, so it could be that doing it. Don't think I'll last without it more than 2 weeks. <BR/><BR/>Stopped a lovely young Sikh man yesterday who refused on the grounds of religion but then proceeded to tell my fortune. Some of which was suprisingly accurate.Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03182743312553270315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025185028400769912.post-9606911020724149702009-01-20T09:47:00.000+11:002009-01-20T09:47:00.000+11:00Tough when they turn out to be tall chaps, yes?

Good portrait: you have him slightly turned, his head and shoulders fill the screen, its nicely located in the middle and its in focus.<BR/><BR/>Now for the important bit. I suspect this was taken before yesterday's issues. How did you feel after this particular shot?Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09513648613788716017noreply@blogger.com
