CoCo

CoCo is #74 in my 100 Strangers Project. I was in the metro with my friend Staci and we were trying to figure out what train to take. Along comes CoCo and she was not only beautiful but helpful as well. We got to talking to her. She has been with the Metro Transit Authority for twenty years. She used to drive bus but now she moves trains. She starts her day at 3:46 am. She is also doing a business on the side to which I will add the link. She was full of joy and so lovely!~ I shot this with my friend's camera and her 100mm, which is an awesome lens, despite me not knowing how to use it. The lighting was terrible but this was the best of the lot. We hugged CoCo as we were leaving, our time with her was that special.
