It was exactly as you imagined, walking by, jeesh look at that, focus quickly and shoot. The follow up shot was not nearly as good as by then they had seen me and repositioned their faces. I know that for a lot of folks digital is the cats meow, but for me, an M is like an extension of my mind. It is just like moving my finger to brush back a stray bit of hair, automatic and without thought.
