Been meaning to put this guy's picture here for a while, took his picture from a balcony in Ballito on KwaZulu Natal's north coast. He caught my attention and was keen for me to take a picture. I always wonder why people want you to take their picture when there is no possible chance of you delivering them a copy.. but I am very happy to have such a happy open portrait of someone.
He was working in the gardens, and when I left a bit later I tried to find him to get his name... but unfortunately I could not see him. So anonymous smiling man in Ballito he remains.
