That takes balls, I love taking pictures of people.
I never do it though because people automatically assume something.
It is a shame because people pictures always show emotion which you struggle to get elsewhere.

Being invasive like he does is bound to get quirky results. I wonder how many times he's had his camera smacked to the ground. Not sure I would be happy about some stranger rubbing their front element on my nose without warning!

If I take pictures of people in the street I, out of common courtesy, ask first. I appreciate that this sort of approach means a slight loss in spontaneity but I have found this approach has led to some very interesting encounters. I think in H. Cartier- Bresson's day it was maybe a little different but each to his own. I like to make pictures not enter a battle zone. If that were the case maybe the man in question should sign up as a war photographer in Afghanistan and see what the Talliban make of him

Interesting approach! Though I have had people mention that they are affected by flashlights, ie in an epileptic sense though I imagine one flash should not trigger a seizure? The problem with street photography with a dslr is that people automatically assume you are working for some newspaper or magazine or such, why can people not get that you take pictures solely for pleasure sometimes?
