It was difficult to really get moments where the people were unaware of me. So I just shot some images to capture the village as they responded to us.

In these situations I really love shooting either with super wide-angle lens or telephoto. Here you can see that the guys at the table thought I was shooting the wall, but I was capturing them at this table.

Here I zoomed in with the AF-S NIKKOR 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR on my Nikon D750 to capture the smoke from the cigarette swirling around the woman.

With this couple I was in a car as we were passing. We stopped and I shot a few frames after asking permission to take their picture.

I also shot some portraits where I am interacting directly with the people. Here I shot it with a telephoto lens and then I switched camera and lens to get a different look with the wide-angle.

I like this photo because I see more context, but this doesn't mean it is better. I like both photos for different reasons.

While all of this was about discovering moments I was also enjoying those bonus moments like this of the guys coming towards me on the cart. I just looked down the street and saw them coming our way, so I was able to just zoom and compose the photo.

I love just showing these villagers in context of where they live.
Tips when shooting with group of photographers. Try and separate yourself a little from the pack. Shooting in a pack doesn't get you the best of photos. However, there are moments where shooting in a pack might work.

Here the guys got their accordions and were performing for the group. This was easier to capture photos because this would be like shooting a concert–it was a concert for us.

But to increase meaningful conversation, sometimes it’s necessary to reduce the not-so-meaningful bits. Here are the kinds of things we’ve been deleting in recent posts. Please avoid these types of comments:
One-word comments like “Cool!” or “Thanks!” While we appreciate the congrats, we’d love to hear more about what exactly you love, and (even more importantly) why.
Shameless self-promotion. Comments that contain links to your site within the body or otherwise encourage folks to visit your blog are a no-no. If you’d like to increase traffic to your blog, there are other places than here to do that.
Multiple comments by one author. We’re glad you want to be engaged, but please give others a chance to speak, too.
Really long comments. Let’s just say that if you need to take more than three breaths to read your comment, it’s probably too long.
