Shot at the tunnel entrance to the Calgary Zoo. You can see a Segway at the very front by the doors. Mike

# 5,6 and 7 shot at English Bay, Vancouver, in the spring of this year. Quite the place for people watching. It is not very easy to take pictures of people without being 'found out' ... but I think the most effective photography of people is the candid shot; to me, it tells a story, raw and unobstructed, honest and true.

#5 The meditating mademoiselle

#6 ... waiting for his ship to come in????

#7 ... patiently waiting for time to pass

This was a GREAT idea JAS! Nice. There are some really interesting shots showing up.

Well, kind of a cheat since I was there in part to take photos. It's hard to get candids when they know you are there to take photos, but I put on the long lens and sniped a few shots. So technically, this is a stranger, one of the many celebrants at Mark's Canada Day Happy Birthday Bash.
