I’d just finished taking photos of stranger 276, Hildur, outside the iconic Newton building at Nottingham Trent University. I was looking at the photos on the back of my camera. I looked up and saw Charlotte emerging from the doors and walking down the steps. I smiled and said hello and told Charlotte I had been photographing the building.
She told me it was a fabulous building. I saw that she had a staff lanyard and ID pass.
“Do you work here?” I asked (bit of a daft question)
Charlotte told me she worked in Student Services, “A steady job”, she also told me she was doing her Masters Degree in Business Analytics
“You can go into the building and take photos” she told me
“But I have my dog, Ruby”
“That’s OK, we have a campus dog, Jimmy”
Note, I did a google and there is a Campus Dog, a dachshund (sausage dog)
We had a chat about the University campus and surrounding area. I then asked Charlotte if I could take her photo for my strangers project. Charlotte said “Yes” on the condition that she could be photographed with my little whippet dog, Ruby. I said “Yes” that was no problem.
So meet Charlotte and my best friend Ruby. Nice photo isn’t it?
