Walking along Wabash Ave. in Chicago I came across several street musicians. I took photos of most of the musicians I encountered, but this man was one of my favorites - he was an amazing saxophone player.

I am not sure what to feel when I see such talents in the streets, is it their passion to perform in the street, or because they were just unlucky with their exceptional talents.
ReplyDeleteExcellent shot!
ReplyDeleteI can hear it, feel it, be there. Great picture!
ReplyDelete@ venichhe...As I approached him and other musicians on the street my first thought was "What brought him here?"...he seemed tired & sad-he didn't make eye contact with me or anyone else. As he picked up the money from his case he simply nodded, still not making eye contact.
