A Pirate Among Us!

Posted by Barbara (Florida, United States) on 1 September 2009 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

Ahoy Mates, it's Silly Tuesday!
This guy really is a character, and never out of character.
He has his ways to charm the crowd walking the Pier 60 area of Clearwater Beach.
While he always stands right at the entrance to the pier (smart move) he noticed a family trying to get a photo of each other with their child with the sunset behind.
The pirate dashed over, far from his usual spot and in his usual charming voice offered to take a photo for them.
Then of course he had them take a photo of him with the child. Something for them to remember from their visit to Clearwater.
What is great is he isn't pushy and always says a photo with him is free.
Of course it is with your camera.

I've posted him previously here and here. How he wears that costume in this climate, he deserves a tip.

It isn't the sharpest image but it is the silliest I have for today.
