Street Performers

The parrot guy at the Pike's Market
These pictures are difficult to handle, there are too many uncontrollable elements in the picture, you never know how each of the audience would move, and you never know exactly what's the trick in the next moment, and you never know what responses would be from the many people in the picture.  Fortunately in this case they never cared about the big camera in their face (literally as I was using a very wide angle lens, and was getting really up close).  And I'm lucky the faces of the three girls hide all the other audiences at the back.
I like getting up close to the action for these pictures, it gives you the feeling of "being there".
