Chris - stranger 317

A visit to our annual village show gave me some opportunity to add to my stranger project. Being there early meant I could approach some of the stall holders before their time was taken up with serving customers.

 

Chris and Angela (see my next stranger) were selling ice cream from their Pashley Tricycle under the company name of Yesteryear Ice Cream. They are mainly hired for weddings, corporate events, festivals and special occasions. They have been doing this for the last two years.

 

I decided to use the side of their gazebo as a background – this also became a convenient wind-break as it was quite a gusty day. The cloud cover produced soft light which was perfect for keeping detail in the lighter tones of Chris’ outfit.

 

I asked Chris what his guilty pleasure was and he quickly said aviation, he then expanded on that and told me he flies a gyrocopter.

 

Thank-you Chris for agreeing to be a stranger for me. I hope you like your portrait.

 

This picture is number 317 in my 100 Strangers project, yes, I’ve decided to do a fourth round. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at the 100 Strangers Flickr Group page
