Just Wonderin’

July 17, 2009

So I was in downtown Buffalo, NY doing a shoot when we walked by this man just standing on the corner reading a book - not sitting, not even leaning against the wall.  He was literally just standing there on the corner reading a book so I asked him if I could take a photograph of him, but I am just wonderin’….. What was the title of the book that he was reading ….. why was he just standing there, it’s not like it was a bus stop or anything?! 

People are so interesting to me, everyone has a story to tell and when you come across someone like this, well I’m sure he had quite a few stories to tell.  What I should have asked him is if I could buy him a drink (Ice Tea, of course ;) ) and then we could of just sat down on the corner and I could have heard his story(s).  I have some very interesting relatives that can really tell a story and it truly intrigues me to listen to other people talk about their life experiences. 

I have a story  and sometimes I feel as though I have not lived, but when I look back, I have lived quite an interesting life and I am happy with my experiences.  Do you care to share a story?  Leave a comment or send me an email, I would love to hear your story!

Oh yeah, that man I was speaking of in the beginning of this post - here he is..
