Touching Strangers

Photographer Richard Renaldi spends a year asking total strangers to touch, and then takes their picture. Some appear like they've known each other for years, some look like they're about to die with discomfort. All rather, well, touching.

    ha ha ha what about the two guys and the green background … he is way too scared to open his hand and put it on the guys shoulder.
    It is a great idea … I find myself looking at the pics for longer than I normally would just because i know how they have been constructed.
    Very cool.

    Dreaming: how many of the subjects on the photographs started talking during and after the shot? Who were them if any, the ones thinking they were going to be dead after the flash o the smiley friendly ones?
