I Talk to Strangers: Day Two Cowboy Brian

 Cowboy Brian is living his dream. He owns a 40 acre ranch in Nevada which has always been what he wanted to do even while living in New York. Talking to Cowboy Brian is always a lot of fun he has a great sense of humor and a ton of interesting stories.

I Talk to Strangers: Day One Wally O.

 I am going to use my 30 day challenge to revisit a previous 30 day challenge from 2010. This time I have learned from my mistakes and am getting model releases each day and plan to eventually publish a book titled "I Talk to Strangers". I have found this to be a very difficult challenge so on those inevitable days when no one will allow me to photograph them, I will just use one of the list items instead.

 For my first day I photographed Wally O. from Sparks Nevada. I have known Wally for quite a while but did meet him as a total stranger the first time I lived in Nevada. Wally was born in Pennsylvania in 1937 and has an incredible sense of humor. He is currently struggling with dementia but still helps a lot of people with his stories from the past. He was homeless in his younger years and shares his life experiences with anyone who needs help.
