I have decided to leave my comfort zone and give this a try. Inspired by reading about Eliiott Erwitt who, if you haven't seen his work, had a knack for humour in his images. I believe it's called 'decisive moment'.

Sigma 35 ART on it's way.

Do any of you take this approach? I assume it's a case of finding a potential location and waiting for the decisive moment.

Excellent. Thank you all for your advice. Really looking forward to the challenge.

Can't let scum dictate how you live your life.

In the past whilst walking through town centre on way to park druggies have commented on the gear I was carrying... I find walking towards them chatting in a friendly manner removes their sense of any ability to intimidate.

But this is Ipswich in sleepy suffolk rather than inner city crime hotspot.

And I bought a Peak Design Slide strap which allows quick adjustment to have camera slung acoss chest snug against body making snatch and run difficult.
