Stranger No36

My Friday people this week is Christian a very jovial Royal Mail Postman in Huddersfield, I was taking a shot of some wooden stetts ( Wooden cobble stones more on them another time) in an ally way yesterday when he asked what I was up to, I explained and he proceeded to tell both Jorlam @jorlam and myself all about interesting places to photograph in Huddersfield we asked if he was into photography he said no but his son was a professional model and showed us images on his mobile phone and very good they were to.
What a great guy! Love the pop of red with his coat - your portaits are so natural.

this most certainly brings out Christian's personality.. i was quite amazed by your very laid back attitude to asking for permission (to take his portrait) and by his immediate willingness - despite saying he hated having his photo taken. Peter, you've definitely got the knack..

Hi Peter. Do you tell the people you photograph that you are going to upload the image to a public site?

@suesouthwood As a general rule I explain all about 365 and where their image will be posted Sue, but I'm sorry to say in this case I was having such a laugh with Christian I can't remember if I did:)

You certainly captured his joviality nicely. Another great stranger shot Peter! You're getting to be very good at this!

He has a lovely smile. Quite a testimony from Jorlam. You have definitely got the gift of the gab when it comes to taking photos of strangers.
