Hello Again Stranger

This is Margaret, who I photographed at the Leicester Caribbean festival last month.

Those who follow me will recognise Margaret as one of my early 100 strangers. I kept in touch with Margaret and she keeps me informed about all the Caribbean Carnivals and events taking place throughout the year.

I first photographed Margaret in 2015 ( a "helllo can I take your photo" moment at The Nottingham Carnival) and then I took a posed for stranger photo in 2016. Strictly speaking in 2016 she wasn't a stranger but as the 2015 shot was quick candid, I decided the 2016 shot passed as a stranger photo. I photographed Margaret again in 2017 and this summer too. So I have photographed Margaret 4 times and she always gives me a big smile.

That lovely smile !! Well captured Phil - fav

[Dione Giorgio]

She should be considered your personal model by now with so many sittings. I remember her on previous posts and she always has the most fantastic of smiles. Another awesome capture of her.

[FBailey]

What a lovely open face and beaming smile!

[Hazel]

As you say, always a lovely smile. Thanks for the refs - if I had to choose one it would be difficult but perhaps the 2015 mono portrait!

[Graham Harcombe]

A wonderful happy face. Nice that you've kept in touch!

[Suzanne]

Wonderful broad smile, she's obviously very pleased to see you again Phil

[Pat Knowles]

A stranger become friend so that's the best photo! You obviously get to know your fellow Nottingham residents well over the years. Love this one & her costume is excellent.
