Speaker's Corner #1 Photo

Photographer’s Note

A street preacher in Hyde Park, London. Plenty of people come to speak there on Sundays, yet more come to watch, listen and take photos. There were people today speaking about socialism, Muslim rights, Palestinian conflict.. But this guy was by far the most expressive and photogenic of all whom I met today, I thoroughly enjoyed shooting photos of him. He is holding the Bible in his hand, and preaching about Jesus and Christianity. Many Muslims, Hindus and Buddhist gathered there were rather upset when told that they will go "straight to hell" for "worshipping cows" etc;)

Hej ho;)

No fajny, miły, sympatyczny mówca. Świetnie złapany w oddechu i paluszek do góry:)
Inaczej bym mu spodenki przycięła...bo lekko go wykastrowałeś:)

Hello Pawel

Interesting image of this man preaching in London. Nice to now that Chistianity is alive and well across the pond.

Regards
Jimmy

Classic pose of a street preacher.
NIce capture of the raised right index finger, the left hand holding the Bible, and the open mouth that speaks lots.
