I'm not as sneaky as I thought I was. She caught me in the crowd,

mid-shot. I smiled and said "It was such a lovely moment, I couldn't

resist." I showed them the photo on the back of my D2H. She laughed,

he joked. Somehow, I like this photo better because they caught me.

You have caught the moment she had caught you - :)). Perfect example of street photography. Regards.

I dunno, Sid.  In an odd way I can't explain, I think the scowling fellow on the left is what makes the photo work.  I like the quirky juxtaposition of elements.  Wish I could claim it was deliberate, but to be honest this photo was the product of my own poor timing.  A split-second later and I'd have caught them kissing without being caught by them.  But it was a fun moment, and they didn't seem to mind at all.

I am forever scared of getting caught, more of a reason why I avoid shooting strangers! There is much human interest here and at least two stories in what is happening between the couple and the old gentleman to the left who does not seem to be so concerned over what is going on. I rather like the black and white version too.

If I had tried this, I would have gotten punched in the face.  Lex, you are a master of self-extrication from dangerous circumstances.
