Stranger 24

This picture is #24 in my 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at www.100Strangers.com

 

I had borrowed a 75mm f2.5 from my favourite camera shop (shameless plug for progear in Auckland they are amazing!) to test with and was just walking around shooting street scenes in Newmarket. I had just shot a couple crossing the road and I turned to find Andrew watching me.

 

Turned out Andrew is a Leica enthusiast whos living here in NZ, having moved from London. He's a big fan of street photography and carries his M6 everywhere with him. We talked shop for a while and it culminated in me taking this portrait of him.

It was a neat chance meeting and it's great to meet other people who share the love of photography.
