A great candid image Ray, but I also have to agree with Walter.

A whole new perspective on the world from ‘Speakers corner’. A good place for candids too!

For a bit of extra background, this photo was taken at 'Speakers Corner' in Hyde Park, London. Anybody can get on their box or ladder there to tell the surrounding people their views, which are often based on religion(but not always). It does attract its fair share of crazy people. Can be excellent for candid portraits, and it usually happens on a Sunday.

An image which raises so many questions.

That is quite a controversial book he is holding. My understanding is that book speaks mostly about how the vast majority of Muslims are peaceful people. But it has been used by some extremists to attack Islam. I wonder what side of the argument he is on.

I find organize religion to be a big contributor to the world's problems, so like Walter I have no use for it.

Great image worthy of discussion. V

Good portrait, but no room in my life for organized religion.
