Scared to ask strangers to take their portrait photograph?
For some, going out and ask people they have never met before to take a picture of them is rather scaring. Zack Arias went through this, when he assigned himself to portrait 10 strangers in 10 hours in the streets of New York City. The images are presented on his website, the video he made about his experience can be seen above.
Maybe after watching the video some photog will have the guts to walk the streets of Jakarta with a camera in his/her hand with a similar goal? Hey, if you see me, portray me, o.k.!

Hi - I ask strangers all the time! So far I have over 700 Indonesian faces on my blog. Cheers Stephen
yeah, Indonesian people are fond of western people. but when indonesian asks indonesian, the stranger maybe he/she dislike it
Same with western people asking western people…
Yes, i agree…
for foreigners are very easy to take Indonesian people photo portrait, for me (Indonesian) is rather difficult to got it…
their excuse more in privacy or some paranoid things…
