I was walking down the road on my way home this morning, but there was almost no-one around and I really wanted to find a woman to balance my set of strangers! At this point I saw stranger N°55 crossing the road. I raced after her!

Meet Anne-Sophie, she 21 and is a student nurse. She has lived here all her life. When she's not studying she enjoys going out and loves to go horse riding. She also enjoys walking her dog.

When I explained the project to her she was very unsure about having her photo taken, but after me explaining that she wouldn't be on Facebook she relaxed a little, or enough to allow me to take a couple of shots. The first one was a much closer shot and in my opinion much better, but she didn't like the closeness of it. Too much into her own personal space, so I came back a bit. I've cropped this a little as there was a traffic light just above her head.

Now that I've uploaded this one I notice that she is almost smiling, whereas she wasn't in the first shot. So maybe this is better! I asked if I could also photo her puppy who was a sweetie, but she said no.

Merci beaucoup Anne-Sophie.
