Yikes, great shots Gary, but what an unfriendly crowd! I'm thinking maybe you should use a longer lens and shoot from across the street next time....

Thanks - Nahh ... not that bad ... after a while you get a sixth sense of when not to intrude.

I think that that what works with many street snaps is the wide angle view is more first person-ish, intimate ... a long lense is more voyuer-ish. Angain, thanks for looking.

Ah, I was only kidding Gary! If you had been across the street, you never could have captured these expressions, that's for sure!!!

Gary -
Great street snap. WA all the way!

BTW, I like your gallery. I get to the Getty about once a year when in LA. Always great stuff to see (shows) and shoot. If you only knew how many shots of the cactus I have. Have you been to the new, enlarged photo galleries in the West Building?
