A bit blurry, but what can you do? Shooting strangers apparently scares me too much to hold the camera steady.

#13 was having a ball at this establishment, drinking some coffee and staring off into space.

What I learned in Missouri:

This beauty of a man introduced himself as Elvis. I am so fortunate to have been in the right place (Waffle House, Joplin MO) at the right time (2330, Tuesday September 28, 2010) to capture the (slightly intoxicated) King in all his glory.

There's nothing quite like sleeping in a bookstore. Or library.

When I was between places to sleep in Oregon, I would open at Starbucks (0430-1300) and then hit the library to "study." Which means I would open my microbiology book on my lap and settle in for a delectable nap. The homeless men always got to the good spots first, sadly. :(

Oh, I hear it's so-so

But it is no, no Colorado

Things I learned on my first stranger-shooting jaunt:

-I'm an incredible wuss.

-People REALLY know when a camera is pointed at them.

-I can run faster than expected on my bum ankle.

stranger danger

Photo Project #2: 50 Strangers.

I'm slightly panicked. Don't worry about it.

I'll post photos of these people the day I shoot them, if they don't shoot ME before I can get to a computer.

Yikes.

Stranger #1:

Portland, Oregon.

Nice Chucks.
