There's an enormous difference between "asking everyone first" and
continuing to take photos of someone who clearly indicates they don't want
the photo taken....care to site a single HCB photo that appears to be taken
of someone who is indicating they don't want the photo taken?

What kind of photographs would HCB have made if he had asked everyone first?
