July 22 2004: The
One who pays the piper

Funny – when I take a photo of a street entertainer or musician, I always give them a donation as they deserve it from any photographer getting something from their performance. But for some reason, probably because I was in a hurry, I just put my lens cap back on and walked away without contributing. But I was told off by this guy and tossed him a coin!
