Stranger #74: Sean

This picture is #74 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

 

Not long after stranger #73 went on his way, I spotted Sean walking toward me holding a cup of coffee and looking relaxed. I stopped him and explained the project and he agreed to a picture.

Sean (hope that's the right spelling) is a post grad student from New England across the pond. He's been here for about a year and has just returned from a break in Main. He was probably the only person on the street that day who would have thought it a lovely warm day!

During our brief encounter Sean gave the impression of being strong, self assured and an incredibly nice guy.

Originally I hadn't planned for a B&W picture but the light was starting to fade and I wasn't able to get much 'punch' out of the colour picture. It seems much better in B&W.

Thanks Sean for being a part of my project, I really appreciate your stopping for me.
