definitely i like the perspectives on each photo. Good to see up close and personal the man who helped shape the face of reggae.
I really love these images… the ease within his eyes and softness in his face gives me a sence of a man who has done this for a long time. I have been a serious admirer of Sly for many years. Some things this guy has done makes you wonder… great images Mr Rickards.
