Brunch with Battutah
Guide III
Posted by Michael Skorulski (Cigel, Slovakia) on 29 December 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.
A Japanese-speaking guide in St. Mark's Square, Venice. I didn't know what he was saying but frequently he had his group of tourists laughing over something.

The look on his face is....different from what I'd expect. He almost looks as if he's hearing some sort of bad news. Nice looking old gent.

Looks like it was cold. I like his red scarf and hat.

A really nice series of portraits! I think these people could also have appeared on old paintings. I really like this.

@MadScientist: I had exactly the same thought. Especially with the first Guide image. Thank you, MS.
