Chris was a volunteer at the Westminster Presbyterian Church at the Smiths Falls Doors Open event. He enthusiastically gave me the historical background and a tour of the church, while cracking jokes and other commentary… hilarious! His stoic headmaster look belies his sense of humour. I took several pictures of him at the church entrance but many of the shots his mouth was open… as he was continually talking to me while I was shooting (I couldn’t hear a thing as a bagpipe band was going full blast behind me – it was just too funny!). He got me to retake a few more until he was happy with his portrait 🙂

This picture is #9 in my 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at the 100 Strangers Flickr Group page.
