[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
In photojournalism once gets hunches...and idea that pops not only into the head but also a chill goes down ones spine...I can feel evil. Just to make sure this image remains online..I wanted to post it to see also if others can see the evil? I do not know this man, but there are many rumors about and since I took this image yesterday, he has disappeared....

In US police language a perp, or a perpetrator is one who possibly has committed a crime...and so when the gendarmes arrived yesterday, this gentlemen went out of his way to hide...but I followed him and kept on taking iamges until he acknowledged that he knew.....the picture scares me...

Bob,
His lips pursed, the woman-like hair, he doesn't scare me!
Women, as a rule, don't scare me!
I am not sure why you feel evil.

"In photojournalism once (sp) gets hunches"

I also think in photojournalism, one makes up his own story to sell their media.
About the photo: The subject is a bit too centered here and a little grainy on the garage door above his head and a bit on his neck.

A very interesting photo with a very interesting expression, Bob. I'm not sure how prudent it was to follow, but the result is unquestionably striking. The reflection in the window really makes this photo stand out. Your composition also draws the viewer toward those rather unsettling eyes.

Ten cuidado, amigo!

Good compo, Bob and quite some 'capture' - a little sidebar story might be the reflection in the rearview mirror: behind bars? Looks like being caught red-faced?
Cheers
Otto
