Ned's Cigars (Weekend Street/Reflections # 54)


 Newtown, Pennsylvania

This was a spur-of-the-moment "street portrait." Without any forethought, I walked into the shop, said hello, snapped the picture, and left. I heard him laughing as I walked away. 

Have a great weekend!

James, That's a great portrait. Good to know he was not offended. Are you going to give him a print of your photo?

The laughing was in relief that you did not pull out a gun! Ned looks like the real friendly type of guy with whom it would be fun to swap stories.

I can see he looks amused! Thanks for hosting James:)

I don't smoke them but we hardly see any shops selling them here, although you can buy them online.
