Street politics: The Art of Separation.
Quite often, while street hunting, I come across groups of people that include just one of them that I want to photograph. But how do you separate them from the pack and ask for a picture without leaving the others feeling unwanted and unfashionable?
Take this young lady here for example, she was among a group of friends that had also made an effort to look good but I did not want to photograph them all.
After doing it numerous times, I have devised a method - it involves very dark shades, cunning verbal trickery and lots of charm all within a thirty second time frame. But in the end, it is all worth it!

GREAT photo. She looks like an angel!
She is sweet. You chose well. It is indeed hard to interupt a crowd. I still have to steel myself to do it. Xxxx

It is a challenge indeed, but you obviously managed it, David, and hey-ho does she look gorgeous!
Haha, I'm interested to hear your method. This is such a great outfit!

She looks great!! It is hard to pick one girl from a crowd . . . but you have to do what you have to do.
