Man with 101 names from Hamburg, United States

he looks like he is thinking "what the heck are you doing mom , get that camera out of my face " but a good shot none the less.

@Man with 101 names: I was suprised he stayed for that one...he cannot stand getting his picture done! Growing up I guess...or a momentary lapse in rebellion LOL!!!

Michael Skorulski from Cigel, Slovakia

It is a very pleasing portrait. But I wonder if that lip is beginning to lift in a snarl.

@Michael Skorulski: Not a snarl, but he got up a split second after the shutter went off ; )
