"I did notice however that people do not figure very much in your albums, so your challenge this week is to take a portrait of a stranger, with extra points if you engage in conversation with them."
The conversation consisted of me saying "I took your picture. Do you want me to delete it or can I keep it?" and the kid replying, "no, it's fine, you can keep it." This is a bit far away to count as a portrait, but it's a start.

@fbailey Really struggle with people as I feel that there is only one shot at getting it right and no re-dos... Plus it's embarrassing. So, this is a fabulous challenge for me. Hoping to get better ones, but at least I can say "I did it. Yay!"
I feel exactly the same way as you say here. I think perhaps it is easier to do when in a foreign country and you look like a tourist taking picture of everything! Well done on this bold start.
A great start.
