Of strangers and work

Florence, from France, who's in her mid-20s. 

I was squatting by the road waiting for people to jog by me so that I could plead with them for a mugshot, and she happened to ask me for directions. So it was just starting to drizzle, and I asked her out of desparation, and she very willingly obliged, and even pulled a few funny faces, to which I wasted cause of the bad control of the camera functions.

Miss Chen, 35. 

This lady was waiting for a friend by the coffeeshop, and I asked her cause the photos with Florence were badly taken, and she also pleasantly obliged, even shifting around, and holding still at the right times so that I could improve my shots! She had this rather clear voice and easygoing manner which made me think that she was only in her mid-twenties!

Mr Lee, 55. 

I ran up to him when I was stuck waiting for the rain to stop at Odeon Towers. He had such a leathery complexion and a toothy grin that it was hard not to be intrigued by him. But it was quite a blessing really, because the first time round I spotted him I was too intimidated to approach him, but it turned out that he had to return to his bike cause he forgot a document! And he was super friendly at that too; God really provides!
