I guess the incident happened as they were getting off the train, which was leaving behind me as I took the pictures. <BR/>Sadly, yes in most cases it goes unnoticed or is ignored.<BR/><BR/>mridula - Well I took this pictures waist level, a little trick of the trade. They didn't know they were being photographed even though they saw the camera. Also they were too pre-occupied to care.<BR/><BR/>arvind - bharath, referred to Good night and Good Luch in his comment as GNGL. Thank you for your comment all the same.<BR/><BR/>bombayite - Yes it can get dangerous, but if you don't provacate them they won't do anything to harm you or the camera. In festivals people are only happy to be photographed. <BR/><BR/>No bad experience till now.<BR/><BR/>twilight fairy -<BR/>yes I did, I carry the camera everywhere I go so whence I get the oppurtunity - click.<BR/>I know I liked your pictures of flickr, thanks for the comment.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03198959729143779613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5487586.post-1141824320589757582006-03-08T18:55:00.000+05:302006-03-08T18:55:00.000+05:30OMG! u actually clicked pics!nice attempt!BTW the ...OMG! u actually clicked pics!<BR/>nice attempt!<BR/><BR/>BTW the pictures of ruins are beautiful!
