The fourth annual National Beard and Moustache Championships took place earlier this month in New Orleans, and photographer Greg Anderson made it a point to capture stunning portraits of the competitors with the most glorious face fur.
Here’s a collection of some of the most impressive and interesting looks Anderson managed to photograph. You can check out all of Anderson’s shots on his Facebook page.
For the record, Jeff Langum (the subject of the final photo in this collection) and his gigantic full beard won top honors at the competition, taking home a $1,000 prize.
