[QUOTE="Lee, post: 218978, member: 8142"] Thank you I have been intrigued with it for several years now but lacked the courage to go out and because I don't really have anyone to go with me it takes a little bit of courage and probably an above average dose of common sense. I stuck with a very busy city center on a Saturday morning despite the rain, because it does attract tourists with 'big cameras' and many more with mobile phones and little point and shoots so I didn't stand out too much. I bought a few coffees to go around (it was a cold day) and took some cash with me to sponsor a few goodwill donations and all was well. I sat and watched these guys where they could see me with the camera for a while so that they knew I was there, then just took a few to see if they looked uncomfortable, but they actually played for the camera a bit. I will take the images on a card next time I go in on a weekend and if I spot them again I will run and get some instant prints done for them You have to try everything at least once before you can decide if you do or don't like it [/QUOTE]
