Power and grace

I saw this kid in the gym carrying a chain we sometime use as an add-on to the barbell. I had to have the shot. I worked up the nerve and asked him to pose. He was very cool about it. I'd like to do some more shooting with him. He looks very different when he smiles. It was his most severe expression he could muster without cracking up.

Once I snapped this shot with my iPhone, though imperfect, I stopped looking for my photo of the day.

Since many 365 projects have a theme, I am beginning to think of making mine about a stranger a day. But then again, I so do love my leaves and my reflections and my sunlit landscapes. How about a stranger a week?
