The Love of a Guitar [Contest Finalists December 2012]
Uploaded: December 03, 2012 09:15:49
A street musician in Fort Myers, Florida who clearly loves his work. I realized shortly after I took this shot that my wallet was missing, and this great guy put down his guitar and took off searching the area to help me out. Turned out that I'd left the wallet in the car, but he was wonderful in so quickly offering his help to a stranger.
