My get-pushed challenge this week by @bella_ss is to photograph a stranger and if you're brave enough ask them for permission and find out something about them.
Well, at the car junk yard yesterday, I wandered into a section that apparently is off-limits to customers. James here was kind enough to tell me that I shouldn't be back there. I asked him if I could take a photo of him and told him my assignment. He was willing, but curt. His name: James. Something about him: He's from St. Louis. That's all that he would give me, but I was glad he was nice about it!

@bella_ss Here's my first attempt at your challenge.

That's a cool portrait. Did you promise to email him the finished product?

[Marc]

A good job all the way! Good work Krista.

[Krista Marson]

@jasperc oh, no. I was lucky enough to get this much out of him.

great shot Krista, i agree it IS the most difficult things to ask....I want to ask people all day...guess I should learn how to ask in mandarin seeing I live in China!

I think it is fantastic! Well done Krista! I think his name and where he's from is great, sounds like he wasn't too keen to chat.
