Stranger #261 - Luke - a photo on Flickriver

Luke was on his way to a friend’s wedding at one of Sydney’s city parks when I stopped him for a photo. Although you can’t see it because of the B&W processing, I was taken by his very bright red and white tie and red vest under his navy blue jacket and with his Bowler hat topping off his outfit I just couldn’t resist.

We didn’t have much time so we shot this in the nearest side street we could find.
It was a shame we didn't have time to chat but I did find out he is studying to be a sound engineer.

I think the B&W processing and the square format, which I tend to use a bit lately, suits his style of clothing and lessens the distracting background a little.

Thanks Luke for taking the time to be part of the project.

This picture is #261 in my 3rd round of The 100 Strangers Project.
