Reflections

On how I managed to diffuse a potentially explosive situation.

 

I was sat on a bench approximately 50 metres across from this family and noticed their reflections in the puddle. I took about five or six shots and noticed with each one the boy with his hands in his pockets became more and more agitated.

 

He eventually marched over to me and demanded to know why I was taking photographs of his family.

 

I smiled politely and assured him I wasn't taking photographs of his family, I was taking photographs of the puddle.

 

He thought for a moment, I could see he was in a mucking fuddle, then he said, Oh, that's alright then and calmly walked away.

 

As did I before the penny dropped!
