Puppeteer Alights from Double-Decker

Took this with my Superheadz Blue Ribbon toy camera and Kodak Gold 800 film. I find that the Blue Ribbon needs very good light (and tolerates little movement). It was late afternoon and rather overcast in London when I took this shot, which I snapped in haste, lest I miss the scene.

Shame the young lady got in the way. Again! ;)

Well spotted Brain and I like the general 'density' of the scene. Off to pick up a gottle of gear I expect! ;)

In Berlin they have troupes of guerilla buskers moving from carriage to carriage on the S-Bahn and U-Bahn. Never seen puppeteers though!
 
Women seem to love walking uninvited in front of my cameras, Pete. (Almost to the point of distraction to be honest!)

Yes Pete, a "gottle" of gear was in order, and we high-tailed into Harrods. (Which sells everything, including gottles.)

Guerilla buskers! Lovely!

In Harrods, which you can see in the image, I was having trouble with my 7d. I had inadvertently pressed a mysterious button (or combination thereof) and suddenly it was showing too much junk in the wee screen on the back (such as a histo-bloody-gram among other things) that rendered the captured image awfy wee and I couldnae see it well. So while the girls sampled chocos I backed myself into a relatively quiet corner somewhere in the Chocolate Hall and tried to figure out how to change the view. Failure! Until a young chocolatier happened upon me and asked me if I would like to sample some chocolate. I said, "No thank you, but do you know anything about bloody digital cameras?" Yes! He had me sorted out in a jiffy and we had a fine chat he and I. However, as we chatted he kept glancing nervously around. It was clear he was being watched.

Thank you for the comments, Pete.
 
That is so bizarre Brian!

And the man with the small passenger :D
