Street portraiture is arguably among the most authentic forms of expression of the human character, both for the photographer, and for the subject of the photo. Neither of them are aware of the other until they cross paths by happenstance, locking eyes, before opening their minds. And in that fleeting moment of connection, the choice is made – whether to answer the call, or to keep going, thus forfeiting the unique gift of a creative collaboration between two strangers. The photos presented here are the success stories of connection, trust and human generosity.
