Brilliant work on your part. The subject is deeply, compellingly odd and sad. He appears to be a ticket seller, based on the microphone. But the absence of environmental context makes this more Kafkaesque, as though he's condemned to sit inside his own mausoleum and answer questions, but no one is lining up to ask anything. I especially like the way you show him poking his own cheek. His finger may as well be the barrel of a pistol.
 
The second to last day of LOVE Park in Philly. The skateboarding ban set in place in the 90's had been lifted for the week prior to the closure of the park. Skaters came from all over to get one last ride in at the once popular skating destination.
