For some reason or another, I have always been drawn to photographing people who are themselves photographing. This one was taken on a photo walk in Indianapolis
last Saturday.

Thanks, and don't think so (hope not). His primary interest, believe it or not, was photographing women on the street. He would approach them, give them his card, and ask to photograph them. He said that if they responded, he'd try to sell them the photo. He was with our group on the photo walk, but most of us avoided him after learning his story. His line was, "I'm seventy-one years old, and I'd like to take your photo."

Someone in the group should have instructed him on the proper way to hold/focus the camera.

Well, that's one approach. Thanks for sharing the story.
