Expressions

Expressions, so important to me. Here are three portraits, from the street.

He was standing near a beautiful car, with such a sorrow in his eyes. Would have wanted to have such a car? I took a picture from afar first, then I asked him to pose. 

The pose was instantly different, and his expression, the one you see here changed. He "posed".

Rue Poteaux, Paris 18 a market. I begun to take picture of him, selling vegetables, with his permission, then as I was shopping often there come back again. Even bringing him, his printed photo. By the time this picture was taken, we were pots. 

I think, just before this expression, I told him his new bird is becoming him, or similar. 

Was in Athens, years later and that day, alone in the central square. As I asked him if I can take picture, we realized, we do not have other common language then gestures. But the gestures were enough. Somehow, we did understood each other as one can see from this smile and expression.
