Thank you for this. I’m always so nervous to ask for permission to take a shot. Now I know then interaction is most of the journey.

Of course! I am glad you found it helpful. Some might not agree, but I do think interactions (or at least acknowledgements) are a huge part of the process — at least my process. Are there moments when I take a photograph of a scene without engaging? Defintiely. But everything has its own time and place for me. And a large part (and quite fulfilling one) is being connected with the people and places I am photographing.

Thanks for reading and sharing Steve!
