Thirty Strangers - One Question: What makes you happy?
Today I caught up with a friend who was briefly in Melbourne for the day before he flew off to work out in the country. After that I decided I'd get the last pictures for the project. I had such a good run of people today that I've gotten over thirty people, perhaps over forty. So now I get to pick and choose the most interesting! :)
If I remember correctly she was on her way to catch up with some friends at High Tea when i stopped her. There was a little bit of confusion as to what I wanted her to do. She didn't know that I wanted to take a picture of what she'd drawn on the paper and got embarrassed that her sketch of the book was bad and that if she had of known she would have drawn a better picture. haha.
I think her 10 second sketches were quite good actually.
P.S. I've been naughty and forgotten to put in the question I asked this last lot of people! hah. All fixed.

This photo really screams Melbourne alleyway. Nicely taken. I think brightening the shadow areas around her eyes would improve the photo though.

Oh, the light here is blissful and beautiful! I do do agree with her for the book!
I have been away from Flickr a while, but how could I miss this amazing project of yours?
I guess you know this project: I just adore it, but your idea to go outside with a sketch album and ask people to write is even more AMAZING!
