7/100 Banu
It's been a while but there she is...my 7th stranger. When choosing my strangers I follow my instinct/intuition so as soon as I noticed Banu and her beautiful head scarf I thought 'she is my stranger'. So I asked if I could take a photo of her and told her about the project. Banu comes from Turkey and her name means 'princess'. We talked shortly about a big collection of scarfs she has; she wears them for a religious reasons and they are suppose to go along with your mood and outfit. Banu said she perhaps owns too many of them but I guess it's like with shoes and handbags- no woman has ever too many pairs of shoes or handbags. On that day it was also an International Women's day so I couldn't imagine better model for the project.
This picture is #07 in my 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at the 100 Strangers Flickr Group page
