London is getting colder as we speak, yet it's not everyday I meet men wearing earmuffs. I've always been fascinated with this piece of "clothing". Was it made to keep the hair cool and the ears warm? Whichever, I thought they suited Michael quite well. He's been living in the Camberwell area for more than 20 years, and I'm sure I've already past him lots of times, so I thought it was about time to ask for his portrait. More interesting facts about the earmuffs can be found here. Little did I know that they've actually been around for ages.
