Candid portrait

 The best results are achieved when the subject is aware of the photographer and agrees to being photographed. Any other approach borders on the invasive. I have always preached this. These rules can be modified in a setting where the people are all really posing like the last post in Central Park. From the shallow depth of field you can see that I was very close to the subject. But. as I always stated, shooting people from far away is really cowardly. This was a vendor at a feast in Brooklyn a few summers ago. I love the feeling of amity and the lack of conflict.
