But of course--I always do. I get some nice shots that way, and they're still candid to me because I don't pose them.

Do you usually get a copy of the image to those folks? Nice group shot, Voss!

Two thumbs up to match two fingers up.

Nice one! This seems to happen often at public get togethers and celebrations.

Thanks, Stan. No, I don't, and only one person has ever seemed to expect one. That was a Hispanic grandmother shepherding her grandkids around town. I sent a copy to her husband's phone, but don't know if she ever received it (there were language problems). I also don't show them, because with the small screen size and unedited features they just don't look that good to me.

Thanks, Guyserman. And now I can rule out one possible meaning for that sign (I had gotten it under various circumstances).

Thanks, Bushpilot. Yes, there's something about the sight of a camera that turns some people into flagrant exhibitionists (samples to come later on).

I really enjoy your endless stream of great shots Voss. And I'm surprised more people don't ask for a copy.
On occasion I've sent some of my "street" subjects copies and always gotten a nice note back.

Do some research before ruling anything out. Apparently the index finger is added to the middle finger as camouflage.

Thanks, mr spock. Can't answer your question. I always expect something like, "Can I see it?" or similar, but it doesn't happen.

Now that's a different way of looking at it. I'll have to think about it.
