Agree - a great sequence for which B&W works really well.  I too like the gent with the pipe.

These shots are great because they have soul.  B&W distills things down to the emotional level.  I need to drag my ass up to Ft. Worth.  When I get ready it's free beers for you.

great shots - I agree with Ron about the "soul"

Thanks, Gary.  8)

I had someone ask me about the 4th shot- the guy wearing the light bulb on his head.  The white area on his face was some sort of white make-up he was wearing, as if he wasn't strange  enough to begin with.  When I spotted him, I started to raise the camera and he nodded at me, smiled, and stopped and struck a pose.
