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:

Rules:

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.

From the Tsunami that occurred last month, I went down to Kuliouou Park with Lisa as many of you not from a previous post and there were some other people there and I just took pictures. I didn’t say anything but this picture they knew the camera was pointed at them. So oh well. I hope you enjoy.

Please click on the photo to enlarge. Mahalo.

  1. If he was in Germany, I would think of this shot / guy as weird ;)

    Sorry I am so late for comments , been college shopping with Jasmine. I think I want to go back to school. Ah…. being young! A student who looks like their Principal will not be so cool, huh?

  3. Well! How nice of your stranger to “perform” for you! :)

  4. LOL! I know this guy is standing on the canal wall looking out to sea, but without context this would be one weird scene!

    The guy is a bit strange though. That wall isn’t very wide and if he fell, the water to his right is dirty and shallow; and the ground to his left is uneven and bumpy.

  5. All kidding aside watching for that wave must have been stressful Thom I was thinking of you constantly.
    Great stranger!

    • It was more awesome to watch it sweetie. The threat was going to be called off in an hour by the time I got there so it wasn’t much. But the shear power was awesome. Glad you liked and thanks for thinking of me :)

  6. That’s a great photo for a caption contest! Loved you “oh well” in there LOL

  9. I’m wondering what he’s pointing at.

  10. I was going to ask what the deal was with the doofus on the wall, but I see that it was already answered. I hoping for something a little funnier. :P :D Mwah! xxoo

  11. Was he one of those guys who thinks he knows everything and was talking about what would happen. And what’s with those camouflage shorts? What big game hunting do you do there on the island?
    The ‘strange’ in stranger seems to fit. :)

    • Carletta my dear sweet friend. You hit the nail on the head with him. That’s exactly how he was LOL Too funny and very perceptive :)

  12. i’m glad the HUGE waves didn’t come… so many of us prayed for you. now this guy in the pic doesn’t look perplexed at all. he looked like he was giving orders to the waves and they simply obliged. “calm down…” maybe he thought he was moses’ reincarnation.
