Besides being "The Festive Season" for most, it is also a time of sadness for many. To counter that, today's challenge involves the posting of photographs of "HAPPY STRANGERS." Adults that are laughing, smiling, generally cheerful or, as evidenced by my avatar, recently lobotomized. People who at the time you snapped them you were not acquainted with. Perhaps in a parade, a sporting event, at a concert, on the beach, in the background etc. etc. etc. Main purpose is to elicit a smile from all and sundry. Cheers! Modest.

Suejay, great shot of the biker boy.. And the munchkins

Nanny, nice shot. She looks like a graceful dancer..

I really have never taken pictures of strangers! Guess I am going to have to try that sometime soon...LOL...I took these last spring, my girlfriend asked me if I would take pictures of her daughter Allison getting ready for prom. Allison's friends all met at her house for them to all leave together & I took some pictures of them, never met them before and haven't seen them since...strangers right...LOL

We had to get a tall step stool to get the girls in the truck...LOL





Ok I know 1 person in this pic "Allison" in the blue dress...Oh and that was thier ride to the prom behind them...LOL
