Some I don't tell or identify if they are peripheral to the shot. Some I do ask and get their names. Occasionally people see what I'm doing and don't want to be photographed but most are happy to oblige. In the last shot I told my friend Kamala that she was about to be punked. I convinced her the shot epitomized the market scene with her and her husband eating food from the Cantina in the sun and the vendors in the background. She agreed with only a little resistance. Wish the sun hadn't washed out her face. Sometimes taking pictures can feel a little invasive. I try to be respectful and stick mainly with public settings. I love doing it but sometimes I do feel shy about it and wish I could wear a mask!

Some people have read me the riot act for taking pictures of their craft table and wanted to know why it was taken and where the image will go and ordered me to delete. (Three times in a decade in different towns.) Did this ever happen to you, jut not most of the time? Do you chat to people first, or ask if you can include them in the shot, or show them their picture? Wonder how you go about your pictures of tables and people browsing.
