The People in My Neighborhood
More random photos from Portobello Road, taken during a quick outing on Thursday to buy light bulbs. (It's great to have a hobby you can practice anywhere, at any time!)
I try to be discreet when I walk along, looking for interesting people.
But sometimes they see me, and I'm not sure they're happy about it.
This guy was taking a break from making smoothies to spend time with a good book. Can't say that I blame him.
This woman's pants were what first caught my eye, but then I was handed a photo-op within a photo-op!

It would seem to me that where you live is such a fascinating place. There is always change and there is always life moving, moving, moving.
I love it.
I love your street shots of all the little stores with their wares on the street and the people. Wonderful shots of the people.
I see another book in the offing...Lovely shots. How is Olga today?
Loving your world!! It is difficult to be invisible with a camera but I think you do a fantastic job ! You must have a cloaking device. Love the copper pots and fresh fruit and guy reading- with that funny little bike in front, photo is complete.
I LOVE these -- I just so love your "eye."
Recursive photo-in-photo moment :-)
The one of the elderly woman looks like she saw you taking the photo and wasn't happy about it! :) She looks just like the woman who played the old woman in Titanic. Maybe you scooped her!
Grandma in the raspberry beret is gonna get you!
Ms Moon: Well, like anywhere, some days are better than others. Sometimes I walk down the street and I don't see a darn thing.
Ellen: Thanks! I love all those little objects and details, too.
E: Olga is fine, though she's annoyed me this morning, as I will write about momentarily.
Linda Sue: It's amazing how people have a sense they're being watched. I can be standing across the street keeping an eye on someone, waiting for just the right photo opportunity, and inevitably they will turn and look at me!
Elizabeth: Thanks!
Peter: Exactly!
Lynne: I think that Titanic actress is dead now, so I don't think it's her. :)
Nancy: It sounds terrible, but I always figure old women are safe photographic subjects, because I can certainly run faster. :)
That is one interesting neighborhood...full of photo ops! Very cool!
