Eric

A local busker/character/eccentric named Eric (Eric the Great, to many who pass him) takes a smoke break along the frozen river walkway here. I wish cities had more unique characters like this guy...used to be so many more. Now it's all condos.

Nice photo. I really like the depth of field. Those shiny objects on his guitar strap and his clothing make me think I would try to find him playing, try to get more photos of him. Did you speak with him? Offer him a print or three in exchange for taking his photo?
 
@Jim Blodgett He's a well known figure in the neighbourhood. I did approach and ask, we'd met previously about a year ago and I think he's used to having his picture taken quite a lot. Apparently he once had a gig at a downtown club and the poster simply said "Eric the Great - Playing Indoors"
