Day 2: Prague - the warrior

I never feel like I take good people pictures but I was really happy with these.  Of course, it helps that I had an outstanding subject.  And, Brandon does stand out!  Another of our end of trip "Best of" categories was best people watching.  At first, my response was Bosnia but then I realized my favorite people watching was watching people respond to Brandon.  Brandon is very tall (6'7 I think) and he usually walked at the front of our little band of travelers.   As he walked ahead, I'd watch the expression on people's faces as he approached.  They'd start about mid torso and there eyes would travel up and up often with a dropped-jawed espression.  It was awesome!

NOTE:  All three of us are tall so we stood out as a group.  On the METRO in Rome, a gentleman approached and asked, "Where are you from?" "The US." "Ah American.  Do you play basket(ball)?"  "No, but he does" as I gestured to Brandon.
