Hi Francisco,

I'm a street photographer so I shoot people in many situations, sometimes embarrassing situations. But when I shoot a picture that might embarrass somebody I make sure the face isn't recognizable. This is a long way from an embarrassing situation, but it's a very, very private situation. Fortunately the faces of the two women on the left are unrecognizable, but the face of the guy on the right is recognizable. I'm not knocking the picture; it's a good one. But I think you have to tread carefully in a situation like this, and this is a picture I'd be very hesitant about posting.

Thanks Russ,

I removed the photo to avoid any possible issue, there was no intention to make anyone uncomfortable.

I know you didn't intend to make anyone uncomfortable, Francisco, and I doubt you made anyone uncomfortable. I do know that those who have intense religious feelings can be made uncomfortable by pictures showing them in acts of devotion. I think most street photographers would blaze away anyway. But a few, including HCB would be very careful of the feelings of their subjects.
