Anyone we know???

Found this on Twitpic (it's connected to Twitter and not a comment on the person in the picture)

Just looks like a comfortable man in a comfortable outfit. :) :) :)

I agree with Skip. Also underexposed, the meter has read the glowing screen behind our comfy bloke. The photographer should have zoomed in on his outfit, held down the shutter button to " half cock", which would have set the auto exp. meter, then zoomed back for the pic.

I think it was taken with a camera phone - not the best thing to use to take pictures....

Whoever took the photo has unwittingly given people the chance to see a man in a skirt (or more likely a kilt), which they would not otherwise have had.
I imagine that sometimes these pictures are taken with the "Guffaw guffaw, this guy's wearing a skirt" type of unthinking, pre-programmed mentality. But, of all those who see the picture, some will have a positive reaction, and all will carry the image of a man with the courage not to wear trousers :kiltdance:
I took my wife to Stourhead (stately home in SW England) last Sunday. We were walking around, me in a denim kilt, and my wife noticed a woman taking a photo of us. I hope she'll show it to her friends with the "There are men out there who like to be different" attitude. When did you last take a picture of a man because he was wearing trousers?

BTW - I've found all of these on Twitpic - other people have been taking them not me.

Of the last three; first the sarong is, to my way of thinking, most acceptable and not worthy of any comment. No. 2 erk those boots! No. 3 looks like a short, follicularly challenged rotund gent in a skirt and, somehow the blue doesn't quite work to my mind, but that is a personal problem I'll admit :woops: :sorry: :hide:

The second pic 'smells' like a Utilikilt, BUT when you
look at the snap arrangement on the front, the existing
snaps go down to a full 'V'. A real Utilikilt only has six
snaps. Three down each side and 'v' shaped. The
Utilikilt's snaps to not make a complete 'pointed' 'V'.

I have two Utilikits. The look 'like' the one in the pic,
but they are not Exactly like the one in the pic.

Other than my comparison, all of the pics, with one
exception(pink boots) look great! :mrgreen:

Well, the pink of the boots matches the background colors somewhat...
