As I have said up here numerous times, people do not like to be photographed, so I don’t usually get shots of them up here. Lately though with the new camera, I’ve been been doing this new thing where I just go out with the camera around my neck with my finger on the shutter. People are at their best when they aren’t posing. Now trust me many end of them end up looking like crap, but a few looked really great. Here was one that I really liked:

They also mentioned something about me getting famous with that shot. Uh, yeah, little chance of that happening. But I am making progress in the whole “there are no people in these photos” thing.
