dumpster diving
Dumpster Diver
Here was a fellow who was out recycling with a horse riding helmet on.
I asked to take his picture, and he said “Sure, can you email it to me?” He went on, saying he went to Southwestern College in Chula Vista. “I got a B in photography, black and white. I’m gonna recycle, get a camera, I’m planning on it.”
It is conversations like this that remind me it is important to talk to strangers, to not take things for granted.
