Daria #18/100 Days of Strangers
Daria and her friend, sitting across from me on the subway, were giggling and snuggling during the 30-minute ride to Brighton Beach. I discretely started taking photos...at least I thought I was being discrete.
From Daria's occasional glances in my direction though, I knew that she was on to me. The more animated she and her friend became, the more photos I took. At one point, her friend got down on his knee as if proposing marriage. Too bad most of the pics were blurred because of the bumpy ride.
Finally, the train screeched to a halt. While waiting to exit, we exchanged names (Daria and Aziz); I told them about this project and thanked them for being such great subjects. Aziz gave me a knowing wink, then we went our separate ways. I chose the photo above for this project because it captured the serious side of Daria. She looks strong and confident.
