100 Strangers 3/100: Tom

100 Strangers 3/100: Tom, originally uploaded by WhereRu.

Tom is a fisherman who likes to catch fish in the harbor. Today he was hoping to catch a dinner of Brown or Rainbow Trout. He is a real joker and seems to be a person who has a story for everything. Tom watched me photograph Hunter (2/100), then he invited ME to take his portrait. Tom actually THANKED me for taking the time to ask Hunter's name and to talk with him. Tom is a real giver, he likes to take roses to the ladies at the soup kitchen. When they ask "Where did you get the roses?" Tom replies, "Eden." Tom said that, "I cut my beard in half to get ready for summer."
