Street photography

I was at a loose end for an hour in town today, so I thought I would try what is called 'street photography'. This actually seems to be a euphemism for 'taking pictures of pretty girls without them noticing'. I can report that as a technique for making a middle-aged photographer feel nervous and somewhat uncomfortable it really is quite effective, but it was also quite instructive in terms of things like lines of sight, setting up a spot out of the way, and use of a zoom lens.

 

That's my excuse anyway.
