...and yeah, I asked her first.

I took a lot of pictures of people today but didn't speak to a single one of them. This lady communicated non-verbally that I could take her picture. But her dog was a tougher customer.



Here's another one. I think she saw me taking this, but I'm not sure.

This guy wouldn't let me get his very young face, and very innocent looking face in the photo - he just got his haircut in a mohawk that day because of a dare. He didn't want his grandfather to see. I kept telling him his grandfather would never know.. duh

OK. Here are two so far.

First- "I don't care, do your thing"

Here's No.2

She was in turn 'engaging' with the poetry seller. She was happy about my shooting her, but he lost his rag and told me to buzz off!

I gave up.. it's not that I can't do it.. it's just that I'm too tired to even try. lol

seriously.. I may do more during this week, but right now i'm opting for whatever strikes me

This picture is just too neat. You have such a way of getting spontaneity from people in your shots. I am so humbled and envious. Everyday I look for your new pictures.

I admit I am having trouble with this as I hate approaching people I don't know unless I've had a few beers.
