One boy quickly became amused at being in front of my camera, so I zoomed in on him.
I was from 10-15 feet away- as usual for street portraits when I've asked for permission to take a photo or two.
Thanks, Chris.
The boy on the left was the only goofball in the bunch- but we're talking about a very brief time frame- probably a minute or less total.
I don't like to force strangers to hold still while I take their pictures- so I become Speedy Gonzales (an old American expression taken from a cartoon character or something like that).
