It's been a long wait for the sun to come out in Seattle. I was on my way to meet friends and saw these two dudes taking advantage of the only sunny spot they had outside their rental...on the sidewalk. I loved the brashness of it, pulled over and sneaked the shot from around the corner. I know a portrait is typically taken from the front but I think this meets the criteria in a creative form.

Hi Adam,
I think this is one of those images you either like or don't theres no in between. I like it, the composition is well done gives us an overall feel for the situation. The colors are vivid and the image is clean and sharp. The rear view is a nice touch, simple yet creative. I read some of the comments and I would disagree on the crop. I think any cropping here would have done more harm then good. The only thing i see with this image is the reflection of light of off the car it was a bit of a distraction kept drawing my eye.
This image makes me wonder more about the story of the image. Like why are these men sitting on the side of the road drinking beer with no shirts on? =)
Man if the back drop could have been cleaners this wouldn't have been a great photo (I know you can't do anything about road construction cones :-) But I understand the relationship you where capturing here!
