Thanks all, appreciated.

The way he stared, with hand on scissors, was a little unsettling and I was in two minds whether or not to risk the shot, but as it turned out he was a nice guy and appreciative of me showing him the resulting shot.

Phew.

Hostility was very much my first impression. It's nice to hear he was pleasant in the end, and it's a fine shot.

Thank you, Jeremy.

I've taken a leaf out of my wife's book and will as a matter of course whenever appropriate, - obviously not when shooting surreptitiously - share the resulting image with the subject. It's also a wonderful way to interact with those we seek to capture.

Thanks, and yes, it does sound rather filmic.
