Every so often someone will ask what I'm taking photos of.
I show them the photos on the back of the camera after we chat a while.
Most seem to like them. Some don't understand, shrug, and walk away.
No one's ever acted aggressively. :-)

It might not be totally at random, but it sure feels like it, when you
press the shutter button half-way down about 30 times, all while pointed
at the same subject in dim light, and the AF-assist lamp only comes on 2

Two excellent shots there Boris - the archway particularly is reinforcing my
recent thinking that
B&W is where I want to be going. I don't think I've taken a decent 'real'
photo for a long time
now, the muse has gone AWOL.

Ah, the power cord bugs you. Yeah, that was a compromise because I
liked the way the light glow was radiating from a bulb just out of
frame and I didn't want to lose that possible point of interest. I
could probably clone out the admittedly ugly power cord.
Thanks, Ken!
