    Thanks Verdana for the heads up on the caps, I suspect the bad habbit came from another site where I got a nasty case of the quints from reading lowercase, "Grin" And thanks again for being cool about something I needed to work on. Leroy

    I think I wouldn't have dared to ask him anything...
    I guess streetphoography is not for me. :):

    Hello Nordic. Thanks for the post. I have to admit that there are times on the street when I ask myself what I am doing. But then I like adventure and I visualize best in that kind of enviroment. I usually advise folks to be cautious, It is best to use "beater" equipment, Spend time out there, I will generally buy coffee at the local Dunkin Donuts and chat for an extended time before even discussing photography with a potential subject. Should you decide to pursue street photography drop me an e-mail, Leroy
