█ CANDID STREET PHOTOGRAPHY — These are mostly Paparazzi¹ style non-posed snapshots. A bit more than just about photos, it brings you the unusual and the unexpected. You'll see people being themselves, be it because they are exceptionally beautiful or they are doing something that attracts attention; a few sad and others happy. If I see a moment in time to preserve, then I usually shoot w/o asking
for permission.¹ To qualify for this, the shocking element has to be present or something interesting going on. The individuals are merely being good at something, taking risks or making mistakes; they may be caught in the act of being Funny, Weird, Awkward, Romantic, Interesting or just being Happy. On some rare occasions I find a few totally spaced out, other times just because I find them to be nice people.

[1] Footnotes: The candid photographs are taken w/o permission, are of people at public places in USA, where they have no reasonable expectation of privacy, are not making any attempt to conceal their private affairs from the public eyes, causing their actions to immediately become public to a photographer.
