there is something, abrasive, mocking of the American way, i don't know. but i DO like it, don't mean i don't. it's just he's in an Elvis jumpsuit with a NYC mug. And stuffing his face with toast (?). Something about this is very very American. Yet not. I like it! Bill, you never cease to amaze.

This is one of my favorites.

love this one! despite the obvious 'american' theme going on (elvis jumpsuit, nyc mug) -- there is something so inherently english about the shot as well. (it's the tea & toast for me). great shot! i'm sort of sorry to see that you've only got 2 more days in london. i'm thoroughly enjoying these UK shots!

Evil Kanevil suit + downing (what is that? waffles?) + quizzical look on his face = AWESOME photo I should make this my desktop...

Diane - it's good old British toast! and for the record, it's an Elvis jumpsuit, not an Evil one (in any sense).

I'm Bill Wadman, a New York-based photographer who after completing my first 365 Project, and then a weekly 52 Project, has taken it upon myself to shoot and post one portrait every day of 2007. The photo will have been taken that day, and each day will be a different person. Some will be in the studio, some will be in the wild. Hopefully they will all be interesting.
