have no idea who he is - i don't think he's one of the named ones above....rather a sort of George Bush look alike - no offence being aware of your affiliations... but do tell.
He looks a bit like Jamie Oliver to me ...
but that could be because it's past lunchtime here!! lol
Hi Tara! Nice photo, regardless of who the gent is.
I could have sworn I'd commented on this - even though I have no idea - and still don't really - I even called my daughter in to consult on this earlier, lol - she said Brad or Matt...I hope you reveal the mystery man's identity (or suspected identity) to us! xox
The only thing that comes to mind is secret agent man, secret agent man okay cheesey I know. I love the clocks what a metaphor for time hanging by a thread or in this case a lovely ribbon which in my world I think fits right in.
No idea. Looks handsome, clean cut. Maybe a celebrity with that jawline.
I love the red jacket in the window!!! Your photos are so interesting Tara. Thanks for your thought provoking posts. We have rain here today, but I bought a ton of plants, coneflowers, black eyed susans, a vine of some kind with big pink flowers on it, and a variegated green and red thing of somekind...they go in the ground this afternoon with a cup of tea. If you catch a hug on the wind, I sent it!
Great photo, as are all the others in your blog. I really enjoy reading it. Are we going to get mystery man's identity or are you going to keep us in suspense?
Well let's see, at first glance I thought Brad. Second glance, no not Brad, but is he familiar?. Third glance....I have no idea. But the entire composition is fantastic.
I do hope you will reveal!
XOXOXO
really like the picture. i have no idea who that man is. i really love all of your pictures. that is one of the main reasons i check your blog everyday.
No, but it is a cool photo with the headless Mannequin and the man's upper body reflecting it the glass. Interesting how the composition ended up all black white and red!
Thank you for your recent post where you plugged Edna Buchanan. My husband has read quite a few since your recommendation. Have a great day Tara!
And the mystery man is ????
Have you givn his name to anyone ?

I know I know, that's Claire Chazel's ex, I think his name is Philippe Torrant, he's a french actor.

Funny - I too thought he looked like a young Patrick Swayze.. but Patrick Swayze doesn't look like that anymore!

I was so engrossed with the coat (my favourite colour) that I did not take my notice of the man. Who is he... we are all dying to know!!! x x x V

It really looks like Patrick Swayze.

Looks like Brad Pitt to me!
Posted by: Regina Clare Jane | 08 August 2007 at 18:51
I guess either Aaron Eckheart or Patrick Swayze. Looks are deceiving when looking at a profile :)

I don't know who he is for certain - I even called my daughter in on the case earlier, lol - she said Brad or Matt, but she wasn't sure, either.
I hope you reveal the mystery man's identity (known or suspected) at some point. Definitely intriguing, Tara! xox
(Hope this takes this time - I tried to leave a comment earlier, and Explorer said it couldn't display the page)

I'm not sure who he is, but I want that jacket!
Posted by: Neil | 07 August 2007 at 23:36
I don't recognize him but I love handsome blondes.
Smiles!
I love all you post.
Love Jeanne ^j^

No, has hair like a young Donald Trump and he looks French. Who is he? I do love the shade of red on the jacket in the window.
Posted by: martina | 07 August 2007 at 16:57
If a celeb... Patrick Swayze? Could be Brad as well. Either way... yum!
Posted by: The Bold Soul | 07 August 2007 at 16:44
So don't keep us in suspense -- who is it? Is Sally right? It's really hard to tell... Very cool shot, though!

Hi Tara,
No idea who the man is, but is he related to you?

hmmm...I don't recognise him. Is he a celeb? And, are you so cunning that you took this shot in order to capture him in it? How clever ;)
