December Challenge: Day 24 – Captain Barbossa
By Brian Auer • December 25th, 2007
Yes, it’s true. Tonight I photographed the infamous Captain Barbossa of the Black Pearl… actually, that’s just what his name tag said. His real name is Ian, and he works over at the Blockbuster in Del Mar Heights. I swear, every time I go in there he ends up helping me check-out, but we’ve never said more than two words to each other. Well, I guess even after talking to him a little about the December Challenge project, I still didn’t talk to him much on a personal level. He’s a really quiet guy (meaning that he doesn’t say much), but when he does talk he’s got this booming deep voice that kind of catches you off guard.
Oh well, maybe I’ll talk to him more next time… I know where he works.

You are a regular stranger photographer! I thought you were shy.
I am shy — it’s kind of an adrenaline rush.
