Great Photo Splint. You are lucky to have traveled to such locations. We often forget that others do not live how we do. I understand your dilema so well. I think you have to be quite 'hard nosed' to just go up to people and snap away. Actually before long you may well get a bloody nose and a smashed camera. I feel that it is down to asking and being able to except 'No' and not feel too embarrased. I see so many 'Real Life' situations while driving around in the car with Syyd. But, to stop the car and just snap away just seems too cheeky and an intrusion. BTW... I have just been to your site. There is some great stuff there. The 'pushkargirl' looks like 'National Geographic' material... Please consider posting some of those images here and maybe explaining how you did them. Colm...
