Nice take on theme. Like Marc i have problems too, to picture unknown people around Me. It seems they hate me, or themselves.

I surely like the discrete smile of that fireman. Nice catch Shirley!

Very good trademark picture. It reminds me of the biker picture you entered this year in another challenge. People always wink or wave, or smile at you. If i'm doing this, people are suspicious, before i ask. Grr..
The blur is not disturbing, but as prices go down, grab an e510, and this will be tack sharp !!

Ha, yes it is hand held and a tad bit of blur but I do lean on things (mostly the window frame of my car. I put my arms on the frame and sorta use them like a tripod and hold my breath too. Now tonight I was taking downtown lights and that called for the tripod. I got it out and it was broken! UGGG! That'll teach me to get cheap junk but still it was nearly 100 dollars. Pooh!

Nice one, hope you haven't been staking out your local firestation to get this shot :-)
Did you take this hand held? If so, you have a pretty amazing technique !
