SHOOTING STRANGERS FROM AFAR

I am not a great one for taking photographs of strangers - I would feel too nervous to take my camera out at a busy station, for example.   But Carmi, over at writteninc has challenged us to do just that.

So I took my camera with me as I took the dog for a walk, along our usual route down by the lake.



 There they were, quietly feeding the pigeons, when along came.......


 

........a woman, juggling with her scarf.   Of course we all had to have a loook (except the dog - he hasn't taken his eyes off the bag with the bread in it!)




Waiting for the Manchester train is really boring!



But the rain is not going to stop anyone going to the Treacle Market!


Go along to the link at the top to see plenty of other strangers who have been shot!

The dog has its priorities right.

Funny how dogs manage to focus like that, isn't it?

P.S. The cardinal flowers grow wild around here. Those ones I took a picture of are in a stream bed near the lake. They like water...

I feel nervous about taking photos of strangers too, Gilly. You did well with these ones - the people at the train station shot is very good!
