An unusual encounter last night

[Sherlock77]

I was just doing a quick run for pizza slices on the way home last night about 10 PM, got my pizza, spotted an interesting man... As per my practice sometimes I asked if I could take his photo, and he was standing in front of a 1970's Cadillac, smoking a cigar (photo enclosed), it was a rather brief encounter but we exchanged information, as he told me about an event he's hosting tomorrow night, he did name drop one local photographer I know

Anyway... Did I say he's rather friendly and perhaps a little outlandish... In a text tonight, I "said" I have other plans for tomorrow, which means I don't exactly feel comfortable going to an indoor event like what it sounds like, given current Covid recommendations here in Alberta, plus I don't like events like that much anyway

This is what he said in a text - Let us keep in touch, Good Man! Somewhere, somehow sometime am sure there is a project to endeavour together...

I'm afraid I've unleashed an artistic monster, yet if I do this right it might turn out to be a great thing for my more artistic side, not certain...

And meet the man, just to give you an idea, and I do like the photo...

That is so interesting @Sherlock77 It's a wonderful photo, well done. And he does indeed look handsome, as mentioned by another poster.

This is like the beginning of a Twilight Zone episode--not the creepy ones but the ones where something cool happens.

He looks very jolly. He'd make a good Santa Clause.

Seems like there could be a reason for this meeting. Nice picture, as always.
