Who is this man?

Do you recognize him?

Have you guessed yet?

I hope you can see a likeness in my doodle to Eduardo Affonso O.M.I.R (Our Man In Rio).

 

Eduardo produces amazing images that capture the essence of whatever subject he chooses to photograph.

 

I also believe that he is a modern-day adventurer, with a keen sense of humour, and an unbridled passion for life.

 

I for one am pleased that Eduardo elects to share his outstanding photography, views, and comments with the Tabblo community.

Thanks, BOB & DEB. I like to have a break from other stuff and doodle once in a while. Am now thinking who to do next:)

Being an atheist I can't say "Oh my God" without feeling sort of contradictory, but... OH MY GOD!!!

My first thought (when I saw this tabblo thumbnail) was "hmmm, this guy looks like me" but it was too good to be true (and my fake modesty would never let me think I could inspire such masterpiece, so it was a real surprise).

If I become a criminal this drawing can be used a police sketch!!

Thank you a lot, my friend! May I have a copy of it hanging on my wall, side by side with Angela's painting?

Mike, you made my day, maybe my week, probably my month - ok, my semester!

Thanks, ERIC.

Let`s say, he is the Pelé of tabblo :-)
and Mike, you are the Michael Palin of tabblo, because of your wonderful, british humour and creativity :-)
on the other hand, both of you are great, unique personalities !!!
Keep on rocking, guys :-)

ooooh I thought we had to guess who the statue was!! :) ok he doesn't look anything like Eduardo, but I think it's a brilliant cartoon and I love the layout, wth the famous Redeemer in the background. why is everyone drawing, painting and photographing Eduardo??? he's a vampire!!! ;)
Fabio_DL said at 8:36 p.m. on Sep 17, 2009:
Wow, Mike! This is a super job!
ConnieL said at 9:11 p.m. on Sep 17, 2009:
Eduardo was my first guess. Good job, Mike!
Snooway said at 9:26 p.m. on Sep 17, 2009:

Charlespop said at 10:35 p.m. on Sep 17, 2009:
Some people have all the luck.......why it is not even his birthday and someone gets up and paints his portrait....and he is the only person ever to have their portrait painted by two tabbloers... great job Wildthing !

Tanglewire said at 3:17 p.m. on Sep 18, 2009:
GOOD JOB .....LOL
Wildthing said at 3:40 p.m. on Sep 18, 2009:
I'm pleased that this cartoon of Eduardo has proved so popular. Thank you all for your comments.
Eduardo.affonso said at 4:04 p.m. on Sep 18, 2009:
It's Mike's tabblo, but I think he won't get angry (nor jealous) if I use it to thank you all for your kind and witty comments.

ANDREAS: I would prefer to be considered the Kaká of Tabblo. He is much younger - and richer! - than Pelé.

ANNELIES: Do you mean my police sketch, oops, my portrait by Mike, shows me much more charming than I really am? As far as I know, vampires can't be reflected on mirrors, but they can be portraited, photographed, admired and even loved!

CHARLES: I have been portraited by 5 tabbloers: Angela, Mike, you (several times!), Annelies and Agnes (Marranei). Does anybody know the e-mail of Guiness Book??
PhotoPop said at 4:46 p.m. on Sep 18, 2009:
Nice work Mike. That is some tribute to Eduardo. Now you will have to revise the painting with a pink blush on the cheeks.
Siagian said at 5:00 p.m. on Sep 18, 2009:
wow! nice art work Mike!
Gerardfotografeert said at 6:04 p.m. on Sep 18, 2009:

Wildthing said at 6:42 p.m. on Sep 18, 2009:
One of the best avatars I've seen in a while, EDUARDO:)

Thanks, JOHN, WOODY, and GERARD.
Eduardo.affonso said at 10:04 p.m. on Sep 18, 2009:

Gretel said at 8:57 a.m. on Sep 19, 2009:

Wildthing said at 10:07 a.m. on Sep 19, 2009:

I would have been very surprised if you hadn't recognized Him, GRETEL. The white robe and long hair didn't fool you, girl:)
