George - Stranger 17 - a photo on Flickriver

038/365 2015
020/215 in 2015

I drove by George on my way to the store and had to pull over and ask to make his picture. George works for a tax preparation business from January till April. He dresses in a mashup outfit of the Statue of Liberty and Uncle Sam and waves at passersby. Fortunately, the weather had turned and the sun was shining. George had a great disposition and smile and was willing to pose. It's been a while since my last portrait and I'm glad I turned around. Thanks, George and I hope the weather holds for a while.

This picture is number 17 in my 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at the 100 Strangers Flickr Group page.
