Meet Sydney

 

Was in Bethesda a few days back - after quite a while. Approaching strangers is always a challenge - and its not changed even after 200 plus strangers, and a big gap certainly doesn't help. After a couple of failed attempts I was planning to call it a day - but during my walk back I noticed Sydney at the counters through the glass of a jewelry store. Her sense of dressing and fashion with that hat and a superb personality was attention grabbing even through the glass. Realizing that it was near closing time, I actually stepped into the store (first time have done that) and made my request. And luckily for me Sydney accepted my request and stepped outside the store for a few minutes.

 

To say that this beautiful young lady was a natural would be a understatement - be it her confidence or her ability to express/pose. Despite the rushed and random nature of these pictures working with a stranger, she just rocked the pictures, despite being on the street. And did I mention the expressive eyes and her enthusiasm and happy vibe. I can only imagine how great she would do in a more coordinated session.

 

Sydney, besides being a store manager is also a student, working towards a degree in social studies I believe. She has been a trained ballerina which I think shows in the way she carries herself. She's only 22 years, but has already moved 14 times already - across the length and breadth of the USA and also Canada, courtesy of her dad who was a chef. Her favorite quality of herself - her ability to connect with people which was very visible during our interaction. Her favorite memory - her time in Canada leading up to the Olympics and the actual event. Where does she see herself in 10 years - married with a happy family and a successful career.

 

Thanks a lot Sydney for being a part of my project - it was a pleasure doing these pics. I wish you all the very best for your future and in achieving your dreams

so i would like to post this Picture again from last Year. This Session is one of my absolutely favourites ever.This Steamtrain is very old and drives only a few Times in the Year through my Town :)

It was a bright sunny day with so many birds on the road.I was waiting for this perticular moment, when birds and people would come together in a single frame.

Toropets, Tver region, Russia, 2018

Love the way I have framed this image, of a woman with a few birds in the background sky. I love the color contrast too.

The railway line between Cusco and Puno crosses sumptuous landscapes, the train ride must be an unforgettable experience.

At the Raya pass, the highest point of the route, we are at an altitude of 4325 m (14,222 ft).

At this point, the cordilleras of Central and South of Peru join together forming the node" of Vilcanota, whose snowy peaks, often covered with clouds, can be seen.

Beyond the pass extend the bare immensity of the Peruvian altiplano to the shores of Lake Titicaca.

Un lieu pour des trains pas comme les autres

 

La voie ferrée entre Cusco et Puno traverse des paysages somptueux, le trajet en train doit être une expérience inoubliable.

Au col de la Raya, point culminant du trajet, on est à 4325 m d'altitude.

A cet endroit, les cordillères du Centre et du Sud du Pérou se rejoignent en formant le "nœud" de Vilcanota dont on aperçoit les cimes enneigées, souvent coiffées de nuages.

Au delà du col s'étendent les immensité nues de l'altiplano péruvien, jusqu'aux rives du lac Titicaca.
