Accordion player Photo

Photographer’s Note

This man was playing the 'box' in a side street this morning during a lovely sunny start to the day. I don't know his nationality but the music sounded eastern european and he played extremely well. Sometimes it was as if he didn't realise that the accordion was there.

Hi Dougie,
if you want to know why you have no marks for this photo it's because the pov is wrong. You are looking at him like any passerby would. I can see you have tried to include the collection tin but it's not really important. Get down to a crouch and take it head on, straight at him, and the points will flow in. It's harder to take because you are confronting the person, but thats why it makes a better photo.
Regards,
Mark
