Warsaw, Poland 2007
At that time there was a lot stree vendors in Warsaw. This guy threatened me for photographing him while being issued a ticket. I just laughed, and asked him how he thinks he's gonna do it.
Interesting. Whenever I am in North America or Western Europe, I don't even bother taking a camera with me to the street. People 'own' their 'private' space and get nasty when they believe you are invading it. During my travels and stays in Central Europe, or 'Eastern Europe', Asia, and Africa, I've never experienced these levels of anxiety, anger and aggression. Cheers, OtL
