If you haven't toured his website yet (www.geebeephoto.com), please do so. It's a fantastic stress reliever. Contained in one his portfolios is a group of 36 "total strangers" images. Graham says he took the pictures in response to an assignment by Kyle Cassidy, who had noted that Graham's photos contained very few people...and certainly not any weapon wielding young ladies drenched in stage blood. So, Graham, I gotta know -- did the completion of the "strangers" project cure your shyness? You Brits aren't the only ones afflicted with "British reserve" and a reticence to stick a camera in a stranger's face, y'know? How did it go? Many thanks, Craig Washington, DC
