Over the Rainbow

This man stands at the same spot every day and earns some extra money by playing the violin. A few minutes before this picture was taken, a passerby offered him a donut. Whilst he was still eating the donut, I approached him, chucked some money into his open violin case and asked if I could take a picture. He smiled and, still chewing on his donut, gave me a screechy rendition of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.”

There's something about amplified busking that just doesn't look right.

Or is this just me?

the dancer was spectacular, strong graceful and rhythmic, beautiful, should be in a ballet company

an interweb rumour has it that when they buried Marcel Marceau there was no lid on the box.

just Marcel's, white gloved, upturned palms as if constrained by some imagined glass lid .. I take great comfort from that mental image

Back Alley, that fourth pic, with the little girl, is very affecting. Wonder what she was thinking about. We all have moments from our childhood that stand out; I'd bet this will be one for her.

Just love this one. I am learning how to play the bass, so I can relate 😀. It's rare to see a street musician plays a solo bass. And what happened to his shoes?
