High on Hookah, a photo from Cairo, Delta

Photographer's Note

I saw him at a street side near the Khan e Khalili. So engrossed was he in the Hookah - it seemed the Hookah had consumed him. The small tool on which he was sitting squeaked & looked as if it would give away but seemed to be transfixed by the concentration of the man !

Your only submission so far in black and white, and it's the one I picked up on: probably says more about my preferences than your images! I also like street photography, especially candids (though I'm not very good at them myself), and this is a good example. Do you think a little cropping and straightening would help at all?
Regards
Will

Hi,
although I normally prefer graphic and geometrical shots, appreciate good photography, like this example of neo-neo-realism.
Bye,
Giorgio
