"Lucky me" - I say more like brave you. I don't think I could do this - stop and go into a store where this was going on, and then pretend to belong. Another reason I could not be a "street photographer".
It is more like "lucky us", that you are really good at this. I'll bet you have dozens of other photos worth sharing, especially with the timid folks like me.

This is in the middle of a dance routine actually, where they transition from one beat to another. There were about 50 participants....60% women, 40% male dancers. This was being filmed, but for what I don't know. This was generally done in a circle with various people being called into the circle to perform...sometimes 2, sometimes 10 dancers.

Damned if I know what was going on. I was driving down Melrose and then saw a storefront full of dancing people. I quickly illegally parked and "Crashed," the party. (an important aspect of crashing is pretending to belong...so questions do kill that illusion, hence my lack of real knowledge of the goings on).

I thought it fun...people, (women and men), looked to me questioningly....but I just continued doing what I naturally do....for a dangerous full half an hour....but I didn't get a parking ticket at all!!!

Lucky me.

Best Wishes, Traveller

This is LA after all. Beauty runs rampart on the streets.
Nice capture.

Very attractive as you’ve noted and I see why you choose them as a subject..... but I can’t help wonder I’d she’s not a paid model for Calvin Klein. Paul
