A collection of close up head shots and portraits of total strangers on the streets. They all very from different nationalities and speak different languages but one thing that they all have in common is the fact that one way or the other, they're all involved in hard manual labour of some sort and they all work under the sun in harsh conditions, and it shows on their faces.

For close up like these I always ask for permission first and most of the time I get asked "Why do you wanna take a photo of me?" my answer is alway "You have a fascinating face", which doesn't really help the situation coz it makes 'em feel embarrassed and self conscious!

I'm fascinated by all these weathered faces and although i'm sure they won't agree with me, I think they're absolutely beautiful.
