People weirdly seem to love this...like moths drawn to a fire almost...it is always swarming with people taking pictures.

You probably didn't notice her as your eye was captured by a knit dress.

But you are right, she is looking directly at me...the eye contact is surprisingly direct.

Hummm....I thought I was pretty far away, shooting from within kind of a crowd anyway...it was closing and lots of people leaving...but you are correct, she seems to have zoomed in on me...lol

For Jim's sake I know what and where this is since I've also been there. It's from the Lacma which is adjacent to the tar pits where I've been countless times.
Anyway my first impression as a viewer it appears as tho she was caught doing something that shouldn't and now you've got proof so shes busted. I didn't summarize that could have been her BF saw shooting her. Paul.

Yes, I think what you say is true, Paul. I did not know how this image would work out, (as is true with much street photography), until I downloaded it and quickly saw her as the central theme but I also have the balancing redhead on the right.

Everything was horribly yellow from this shoot....I couldn't figure out how to change some custom white balance I had put in....I had to come home and read the manual again...lol

But this forced me to play with color temperature...something I don't normally do, and so it was good to learn something new.

I suppose a return question would be...who's busted? She for posing, (I think that is her boyfriend down on the right), or myself, the photographer?

Best Wishes, Traveller

Not sure where this was shot, but I see a lot of cell phones - are they all taking photos?
Nice capture.

Title, BUSTED: I base my title name from the expression the lovely young lady on the left. Since I don't see anyone down on one knee proposing to her I'm guessing she was surprised to see and your camera looking her way. Paul
