huh! I have a long term project called "agreeable strangers", and find the most people are agreeable, with few "no's".

When I started a few years back I wondered - at 6"2' and 250 people might be intimated? I always introduce myself and ask, invariably they agree. I have rec'd a handful of refusals, but in every case except one, asking again, they allow me to take their picture. (hmm, maybe I am intimidating?!! 😲😲😲)

Parenthetically, afterwards, I offer to send them a free print and give them my card with email address - a few have taken me up on it.

p.s. I like his expression, he's comfortable, confident and curious - nice guy.
 
Nice project.
