Faces (of friends) - portraits and candid photos of the people you meet

Self Portrait in 3

Here's a collection of portraits and candid photos of some amazing people (hitchhikers, backpackers, world travelers, kind souls, and great friends). They've made my last couple of months better than I could have imagined. They are drinking buddies, company on long drives and the kind of people that give humans a better reputation. We backpacked, we canoed, we day-hiked, cruised, boozed, laughed and learned. We learned about each other and ourselves; the places we've been and the places we'll go. We are friends.

    You never know who you're going to meet.
