Portraits of Strangers by Danny Santos

February 26, 2013 · Bill Jones

Today we showcase a very talented street photographer from Singapore, Danny Santos. Danny has many compelling examples of street photography but today I would like to share a collection of images he calls “Portraits of Strangers”.

Danny describes this collection in his own words…

“When I’m out on the streets, I often encounter faces that make me look twice; faces that stand out in the crowd without trying; faces that are out of the ordinary. They range from the exquisitely beautiful to the strangely wonderful. I started to approach these strangers for permission to take a photo of them. Some said no, but most said yes. After taking their portrait, I’d say ‘thank you’ and walk on along. I didn’t ask for their names, or where they came from, or what they do, because I wanted the viewers to see them how I saw them: as beautiful strangers.”

To see more of Danny’s work please visit his website here.

Enjoy!
