  Thanks, I have been assaulted once by a man who thought i was spying on him! It was frightening as he grabbed my camera which was around my neck, spinning me round like a rag doll. Luckily some passers by came to my rescue. This was in daylight on a public street, and i wasn't even photographing him !! I love your portrait by the way, sort of Miles Davis album cover about it, need a trumpet now x

  Hi just ask the main subject if they mind, if they do then don't take yhe picture. If you are in a public place and you take photos of adults there is no problem as you are in public as they are. Just apply common sense to the situation. By the way love your portfolio.

  That's care in the community for you. I am sorry to read that you had such a frightening experince. I too have suffered from the agressive, luckily I am over 6ft so people are wary of putting their hands on me. Unfortunately in that case there was nothing you could do. If you may feel unsure whether to take a photograph practice shooting from the hip. This is a good method if you want to catch people naturally of guard. Especially before they have their X factor moment:) Thanks for the compliment love Miles, no trumpet will a clarinet do.

  I still have no idea how to use photoshop, I sort of think it's cheating. What do you think? Would improve my work?

  Well Photoshop is a great thing to ues it as it can do a lot to a photo and it can mark a not to great photo into what could be an even better phtograph. But i still think that it is only as good as the person that ues,s it . And whaether you may got a lot out of uesing photoshop for your work . I have looked at a lot of the photos that you have tlaken and i do not think that there is any think that you would need to do to any of the photographs that you have tlaken at all to impove them, you have some good work on here keep up the good work.
