Complete Stranger


Yes, yes, I'm a little behind. I tell ya, this stranger thing was tricky. I wanted to make this picture focus on the human element, but that's very difficult to achieve because a) people don't act the same when they're being photographed and b) people don't like being photographed by a complete stranger. In fact, as I was sneaking pictures while standing in the super-crowded supermarket line, one of my friends caught me and asked if I was doing surveillence. Oops, I had some explaining to do.

Anyway, I chose this one because of the body language in the picture. It's hard to make your body hide the fact that you are frustrated the express lane is not.
