Cornelius - 93 of 100 - a photo on Flickriver

The afternoon was mild and cloud covered when I was in search of the perfect location for a family photo-shoot. I had just finished scouting locations and was headed to meet the family when I saw Cornelius. He was riding a bike like I'de never seen before. Two frames welded together and with no seat, Cornelius rode it with ease. I knew I had to ask him to be in my stranger project. I drove down a few blocks before I pulled over to ask him. He was all smiles and happy to have his picture taken. He have me several poses, but I felt this one showed his character best.
Cornelius rides his bike all over Lubbock, sells t-shirts, and often carries a Dallas Cowboys flag on his bike. It was a pleasure meeting Cornelius, and I hope he fairs well during the coming cold weather.

You can find the rest of my project in my 100 Strangers set.
