Brandon
Made by TheHeat0415
The Dad Vails were this weekend on the Schuykill River. It's the largest collegiate crew regatta in the United States. I figured it was the perfect place to meet a stranger or two. It was actually a little difficult to single out people for a picture as there were SO many people. But as I was walking along I looked over and saw Brandon whittling while sitting on the boat tow. I introduced myself and ask if I could take his picture for this project, he looked a little confused but just said sure. I tried to chat with him a little and learned that he was not rowing (but he didn't offer up what he was doing at the Dad Vails, maybe he was a coxwain but he looked too big). I did learn that he came to Philadelphia with Lawrence College in Wisconsin, and well, he wasn't that chatty, so that's about all I got out of him. He looked a little dark and mysterious whittling and well, he stayed true to that throughout the shoot! This picture is #10 in my 100 strangers project. wwww.100strangers.com
Betty

While walking through the Dad Vails this weekend I was passing the grand stands. There was Betty selling programs to the races. And in case you've never been to a crew race, if you want to know what school is in what race a program is a requirement! (Just over her left shoulder you can see a crew team). She very willingly and said yes when I explained the project. While I took her picture we chatted about her jacket, which shockingly she bought at BJ's! This picture is #11 in my 100 strangers project. www.100Strangers.com

“People who have lost relationships often wonder why they can't just let it be water under the bridge. It is water under the bridge - the trouble is we do not live on the bridge but in the river of life with its many twists and turns.” santiz Grant Fairley quotes
