when I saw the sun shine on him like it did I had to take it anyway

I like the first one, Marie! Better light, better focus, better shot.
Next time use your foot on the people in the way. Don't forget to say, "Excuse me!" ;)

I really like these Marie, I do favor the second one though, even with the very tight crop. I bet it would look fantastic with some selective color done to the sunglass lenses and the rest in B&W. Nice shots.

'sides they were paying €10 each, who was I to push them aside
lol


and their €10 covered them to visit the old long library room where the famous 'Book of Kells' is displayed (no photos allowed there)
I had been just passing and I heard the fellow and thought that he was doing a wonderful job, best I have heard yet and I've heard a few over the years . for any students who know their stuff its a good way to earn more pocket money. he is studying medieval history.
