 Taken as part of a day shooting street photography in Chester. This was my first attempt at doing this with a 50mm instead of a 70-200, it was quite intimidating at first but fun trying to figure how to get a shot without being noticed.

I hope this one doesn't bomb.

Processing:

Lightroom 3 adjustments.
PSE 8 Crop, Clone around glasses to remove patches, HP sharpen.
Topaz denoise.
Portrait Pro to sharpen eyes.
