I stopped at the nature park Slätmossen for a few photos the other day and that's where I met Andrea. She had a day off work and was sitting on this bench and table reading a Nick Hornby novel, Slam. Today Andrea lives in Handen, but for two years she lived in Thailand. Together with a friend she owned a restaurant at Koh Phangan. It was called Sultan Cafe. They focused on a Swedish/Mediterranean menu as her parter was from that area. The restaurant is now history as the 7-Eleven chain bought the land. This is my third portrait from this great park. Earlier this year I met The Sun-Worshippers here and last February on a warm and sunny day I shot one of my first ever portraits when I met Kristin here.

Beautiful portrait! Andrea looks very relaxed in the picture!
This is really a beautiful portrait !! Andrea seems to be off the work and is just relaxing in the sunny day..This is fantastic..Unseen Rajasthan
She looks really relaxed, like she was a model. Your portrait is very good and I think that this time you may own a bit of merit to the model.
Another day, another pretty blonde. Nice portrait Steffe.

What an excellent portrait. You capture her as she is reading. But you capture much more. We get a sense of her before this moment and after this moment. That's a remarkable skill, to catch that in a single frame.
I have said since the days of Kristin that your portraits of people are just flat-out stunning. Your gift of gab or your ease in meeting strangers and getting them to pose or be photographed is nothing short of a wonderment. Nice shot Steffe,
I'm glad to see another portrait of a beautiful woman. You do those very well. I wonder why that is? :-)
Steffe, as a recent follower of your blog, I am impressed. I think taking on the stranger challenge was a great idea and you are doing a great job with it. I will be following along.
