12 Strangers – #4
Ida at Idathue has a cool meme going on. The challenge goes something like this: 12 weeks. 12 strangers = 12 portraits. Here are the particulars direct from her blog:
1.: the person I take the picture of must be a stranger.
2.: show the pictures here every Tuesday for the next 12 weeks.
Bonus points for actually stopping a person and asking if I can take his/her picture.
I’d love it if you’d play along too. There’s nothing quite as inspiring as a little group support and pressure 
See you here next Tuesday.
You can get more information by clicking HERE. Thanks Ida for hosting.
I was at Waikiki Beach and thought there are plenty of strangers around here. And yes, after asking around I decided on these three to share. What I like about these is when I was taking the photos I asked them to just act normal. Do what they would be doing before I took the picture. I think they came out pretty well. And on the last one I almost got the famous plumbers crack!! LOL Awww the joys of Waikiki Beach. I hope you enjoy.

Hey, it’s only my opinion.
A Hui Hou
I wished I could have sit there too ! and not in – 2°C ! It’s nice that you asked before, because I made once a bad experience. The guy got furious and I had to erase the picture ! Maybe he had already his picture somewhere with the words “Wanted” !
ROFLMAO!!! Worlds Most Wanted…too funny. Well come on over Madame Chat
Plenty of room on the beach 
Lovely pictures, Thom.

How cool of those strangers posing for you, and naturally too! They can’t refuse Thom

Great pictures! I will have to try this meme soon. I love taking pictures. Hope you have a great day.
It’s a fun one I must say. Glad you liked it
great photo’s Thom, and good on you for asking them.
Glad you enjoyed
They actually let you take photos of them? I’m surprised!
Great photos!
Mahalo my friend
well,m i’m actually too shy to walk from stranger to stranger and ask them if i could take their photo… and i very rarely steal such photos as well so i admire you for your determination
well done, my friend
Thank you. Well I just figure all they can do to me is say no and so I’d just move on LOL Glad you enjoyed
The beach looks lovely. Here we have gray skies and I am chilly today.
You are chilly being back east last week in the snow? pffft. You know that beach well if memory serves me correctly
ACK!!! I forgot! But I haven’t posted yet today… there’s still time! LOL!
Well my darlin’ I’m glad you liked mine. LOL
LOL!!! I DID like yours!!! You ASKED??? On the BEACH??? I like that 2nd guy! I can’t believe you ASKED! On the BEACH!
You sure? LOL. Just joking. Thanks and yes I did ask. This time at least. LOL
Great shots! I love the natural look in these shots. How did you decide on whom to ask? I really need more determination to join challenges like this.
Well, not determination actually… but more guts
LOL…guts…I love it. They were the closets ones to where I was that’s how I asked them
Glad you enjoyed 
The people-watching stranger looks ominous! I forgot about this meme and how much I like the pics!
Glad you enjoyed this. You should join in if you enjoy it
are you sure that you really asked to take pictures of them.. it doesn’t look like you asked them.. just just my opinions ok…
Indeed I did.
Wow, you asked THREE strangers. I’m impressed! I wish I had the guts to do that!! My favourite is the guy with the tattoo, I wonder what it says?
Indeed I did…Me and my mouth never stop LOL
