I took a few posed shots in color with my 'blad. But that only lasted a second. The rest were candids, all shot with my Leicas. Seems like in at any group event, once people sense it's photo time, somebody will always take charge. That person will try and arrange things and recommend that someone take this photo, or that. At that point I grab my Leicas and blend into the background. My favorite shots come when nobody's paying any attention to me. "Don't mind me, I'm just the gardener!"
