The guy on the far right in the first shot looks like a kook that has
shown up in some Dirty Harry movies. And one guy has a Keith Richards
thing going there.

Nice albeit scary shots.

A group of four came up to me in the pub and asked if I was a
photographer. I have some photographs on the walls that I did for the
landlord which is why they probably thought I was one. They were looking
for someone to take a few snaps for their website and I agreed. Some of
the results are here...

The funny thing was the way they adopted their 'poses' as soon as the
camera went to my eye. I now realise how useful a whip and a lion
tamer's chair would have been to keep them under control :-)

Praise, brickbats, votes all welcome.

The band are called Attica by the way and play jolly loudly!

Camera was a Canon 20D with various Canon lenses. I used the Fred
Miranda plugin to convert to b&w with a blue filter to darken the skin
tones and the brick background.
