Hey guys!
004- Oops
Let me introduce you to Oops. Yes, Oops. He is called Oops because somewhere between the time I asked him to take his picture and gave him my card, I forgot to ask him his name!
He was awesome, very friendly, and polite. What really made me want to add him to the collection was he was just so SHARP!! His suite, and hat were awesome.
I wish I would have gotten his name!

005- Art
This is Art. Art was an amazing stranger! I wanted to snap his pic because he looked so friendly, and I really liked his hat.
When I explained the project, he rejected it at first. "No thanks man, not today" but he didn't walk away, All it took was "Are you sure, you are lookin' pretty sharp in that hat" and then he accepted.
After that, we chatted, for a good long while! Art was in the Air Force, and over seas a lot when he was younger. Back then he shot film on a Canon, and also liked to shoot video with his super 8 recorder (he had to point out that there was no audio on those).
He reminisced about the shots he took and showed his family. His favorite shot was when he was stationed in Hawaii. A beautiful girl was surfing to the shore. Everything lined up perfect. It was his favorite, and he can even remember the color of her bathing suite. It was white.

Thanks,
