megan . 24 years old  /  denver . colorado

yeah! i am feeling good about today's photo.

i was heading down the street with two objectives: find a stranger and find a hair salon with a willing stylist to fix yesterday's debacle.

i was walking across an intersection not far my apartment when i saw megan crossing the street a bit further up. i changed directions and headed towards her. it was an obvious maneuver, so she looked at me and was most likely wondering what in the world i could possibly want. i am less worried about people assuming i just want money, though, because now my big red beard is gone.

i told her about my project and she seemed interested in it. i asked if she would be today's stranger and she said yes, but excused herself for being shy in front of the camera. i told her not to worry and that we'd end up with something great.

once i was comfortable with where she was standing, i told her i was going to take about 20 shots. that surprised her a bit, but she was ok with it.

it turns out that she wasn't awkward at all. she was much less awkward than i am in front of the camera... i really dislike being photographed

we took some shots and parted ways. i don't know what she does or why or much of anything about her except that she has fun hair, cool pants and shoes, and a great u.s.p.s. cardigan.
