52 {strangers}

wow.
this is soooo much harder and challenging than i ever, ever thought it would be!
if i told you how many times i had my camera out with me and did not have
the nerve to go up to a stranger and talk about what i was doing…..
i’m not giving up, though.  i’m still going to go for 52…but i’m amending it to
‘within the year’
is that cheating?  no, it’s my blog!
and…i think it’s fine to use photos of strangers you have already shot…as long as they were truly strangers.
so, i think i will post another picture that i had already taken (of course;)
i took this photo on an island in greece on my honeymoon.
this sweet, mysterious little girl was sitting right outside
our alley pension… three days in a row…same place, same dress, same forlorn look.
we would smile at her, but nothing came back.
i was so taken by her.
i think about her every now and then.
i would love to look her up now, 15 years later.

i’ve named her ‘petra’
