Zoriah

Zoriah

And this, frankly, adorable young woman rounds out a very successful day at the tail-end of July, and the second time in less than a week getting four random encounters. (I never posted the final random encounter from the 22nd, which was a young couple fresh out of high school, as the shots I took of them were experimental.)

When I first noticed her, I thought Zoriah was someone I saw frequently at a previous job. And when we crossed paths the first time, I knew that couldn't be possible. Zoriah is way too young, and the last time I saw the person in question was... approaching a decade ago.

On the second crossing I decided to approach her, asking about the breed mix on the dog - same question I used with Grace that led to me photographing her and her dog the first time. The spots tell me likely part healer, and she thinks the dog is also part border collie. Using Google Lens to see if that could narrow things down wasn't much help.
