:-)

I was extra cautious in that place - it?s is a maze of narrow alleys where 
they all know each other well and freely traffic a little. 
Should one of them find you intrusive or rude, I bet even the police would 
never locate your shoe-laces or camera soft release.

I was caught once because I had not managed to refrein from lifting the 
camera to my eye ? and was instantly ordered to delete, this by the guy two 
shops farther. He yelled DELETE !. Which, of course, I did. Well, did I 
really ;-)
