Do you ask or just shoot? I had an hour in Leeds, one bloke I asked refused so I thanked him and moved on, I took one of a lovely girl but she was unaware as you get a better picture when not posting.
I was going to take one of a homeless guy who got shirty with me and I said I was not looking at him but was taking pictures of buses, which was a lie....I moved on pretending to take buses as I wanted to seem genuine.
The main thing that I am trying to get across here is that when viewing Flickr, most shots of people do not look as if they knew the photo was being taken.
Do you ask first or just shoot and hope?
These ladies I asked and they allowed me as I normally ask.
