Thanks, I did ask for permission before sticking the 10d with the big 24-70mm L lens with lens shade up into their faces. This camera certainly did alert people, but it seemed to be in a positive way as many people were very willing to get their photo taken.
You have really a lot of nice portraits collected here, catching something of the character of the people of India. Didn't anyone object to you sticking up a 10D in their faces? Best regards Mark
