Disclaimer: I took this photo in May of 2015 and have since lost my notes. I am certain of only a few true facts to this encounter, but had the names saved in my (608)strangers archives.
Two friends in school who have a shared passion for music strum their guitars on State Street on a beautiful Friday afternoon. I sat and listened to them play, making small talk and requesting permission to take a few photos for my project. They were both in agreement, and thus I snapped away. With my recently acquired 16-28 f/2.8 the shadows were no match and I could zoom for a tighter crop. I look back and do question my intentions with shooting this at 3200 ISO from a technical stand point, but being that the lens was still new: Maybe I didn't know how to fully use it? Aside from the random banter, I asked the two if they'd be willing for me to share the photo with the 100 strangers group here on Flickr. They agreed, I took there names and was on my way. In the last year and a half we haven't crossed paths again, but who knows maybe somehow through the magic of the internet we will! Until then, meet more strangers.
