Yup, I do still take an occasional photo of people I meet down here, although I haven't posted any of them before. Bob is in his mid 80s. Every day at 3 p.m. he drives to Naples' main street, where he meets with a bunch of people he has met at a friendly coffee shop.
Tricia is holding Diva. She was at the Red Dress Race. Is she attractive? I didn't notice . . .
And, Gary works at the cash register in the historic Smallwood Store on Chokoloskee Island outside Everglades City.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great cast of characters! They look great behind the camera.
I like all three photos but especially like the one of Gary as he looks so natural, not posing.
ReplyDeleteHaha! You're so funny Jack..but you do take super portraits!!
ReplyDeleteGary looks kind of like Bill Bryson.
ReplyDeleteThree happy, contented people.
ReplyDeleteNice portraits here Jack. I think that lovely lady could get a job as a model.
ReplyDeleteMore great faces--thanks, Jack. And you know you're a hoot, right?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful portraits! I love when people smile!

Looks like a very nice spot to be just as the moment. Lots of sunshine and people out having a good time. Super portraits.
ReplyDeleteGreat people shots for the day, Jack, and three very different ones at that.
ReplyDeleteAnd that's what I like the best -- the wonderful variety that make up all our worlds! Hope your week is going well! And, yes, you are a hoot indeed!!
Three different types for three very good portraits!
ReplyDelete# more great portraits, Jack!
ReplyDeleteGreat portraits Jack!
ReplyDeleteMaybe Bob is hoping to meet Tricia. Or Diva. Gary? Well, he looks like a typical Florida cracker which he probably is working on Chokoloskee Island!
ReplyDeleteNice portraits!
Brilliant portraits. Were you too engrossed in Diva's... er... tongue?
ReplyDeleteOnce again, you've outdone yourself, Jack. I particularly like Gary and his setting. It screams Florida swamp.
ReplyDeleteI've always enjoyed your portraits. Has anyone ever refused to have you take their portrait? I can't get up the nerve to ask people I see.
ReplyDeleteThat pup steals the show.
ReplyDeleteBob looks fab for 80. Can't underestimate the salubrious effects of the sun on one's bones.
ReplyDeleteThe dog doesn't count?? There are four faces, Jack!
ReplyDeleteWonderful portraits! Esp. Gary. You've taught me a lesson, need to be less shy about asking folks to take their pictures - such marvelous faces.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful portraits, Jack, as usual!
ReplyDeleteNice trio. All very different from each other.
ReplyDeleteFour faces!:)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, great portraits!
Love these portraits, Jack. And what character. Is this Naples in Florida? I'm presuming so which makes you a snowbird. Is that right? Do you remember Isabelle who used to blog from Naples on CDP?
ReplyDeleteSplendid portraits, Jack!
