I asked permission from his ma and took a couple of quick shots.
At the market in Irkutsk.

Thanks SS and 1080 (what nifty first names ).
Most outdoor markets are wonderful settings for shooting.
And way out in Siberia the apparent paranoia of the citizens was much less than in Moscow- so asking for permission to photograph people was without strain. Especially to take pictures of kids.
My shooting "style" for this kind of travel photography was basically to be speedy- before anyone became uncomfortable- especially the children.
After getting the okay nod from mama, I found the perspective I wanted, zoomed for composition, and shot.
Because it was an old 35mm manual camera- I always preset the exposure before asking permission.
So the whole thing took less than 30 seconds. Often much less.
