Woe Is Me

Working on people and SOOC shots has been a challenge for me so far this month. I saw this gentleman waiting for a prescription and thought he looked like a great subject but didn't have the courage to ask outright so I sneaked around the aisle and pretended I was looking at something else while I lined up the shot. I came back around a couple of times until I got something I thought I could use.

Wonderful candid capture

[Janiskay]

If you had asked you never would have got this look. Great shot!

[Tunia McClure]

Great shot. I don't think he noticed you at all.

[Richard Sayer]

Great candid Katy and perfect for the nf-sooc challenge - thanks for joining in.

[Leslie]

Boy things don't look good for him, I hope he's just tired. Great candid

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Good job! I don't mind sneaking pictures of produce in the supermarket, but I'd have trouble doing this!

[vstap]

You've captured a great pose, love the hat!

[summerfield]

you sneaky lady, you! this is a great capture, quite emotive, you know!

[Debs Stott]

You are a braver soul than I! I also look for ways to do it sneakily as I don't have the courage to ask...
Great shot.

[deb]

Nice capture I think you got it

[Barb Tatum]

Great shot! Pretty brave!

[Chris Johnson]

Love hearing your sneaky stories! That's quite an expression, hope things get better for him.

[Gillian]

Fabulous candid! And I love the idea of you sneaking around to get the right position - which you certainly did here!

[Richard Sayer]

Katy, I forgot to say, you should tag this for sep15words sneaky-shot.

[katy]

@vignouse well, thanks, Richard! I didn't know anything about that. I don't usually follow the words challenges but I just might do that! Thanks so much!

[Diane]

Great shot! I have trouble taking pictures of strangers--I think I need to work up the courage to ask, but so far I've only done it a couple of times, and not in situations like this. If you'd asked, you would not have captured the same expression.

[katy]

@eudora I guess sometimes being a scaredy cat works then? Thanks Diane!

[Bill Fenske]

love this candid, great pov

[katy]

@bill_fe Thanks so much Bill! It was fin to take the risk!

[Annie D]
