All your photographs I have seen are very well framed, in that your choice of lens suited the subject and surroundings. Please tell me your workflow for this photograph and the 'waitress' in the featured portfolio.

That is, how many lens would you have had on your person at the time, did you show your camera and lens and fumble around changing lens, metering before taking the photograph. Did you do this clandestinely and pop up the camera quickly and click, did the subject even know he had his picture taken? In this photo, asking permission beforehand would have totally broken this guy's train of thought/daydreaming.

Furthermore, how do yourself look to other people (height, demeanour), do you 'blend' in with the crowd, (smart clothes or dress-down, etc). I find that I draw attention to myself which for this style of photography would ruin the shot.

Any information appreciated here or by e-mail(dbnntt5@aol.com)
