I took this shot at the 2013 St Patrick's Day parade in London, just as I was crossing a road the gentleman in the picture was walking towards me. As I raised my camera he paused and subtly stood up straight for barely half a second to let me get the shot, then gave me a smile as we passed one-another. A true gentleman and typical of the charming little experiences you get from street photography. Photo taken by Ashley Burton (United Kingdom) - Holidays/Events

Photo taken along the banks of the Seine. The mother was nearby but paid so little attention to her only duckling. When the mother strayed this is when I took the photo.
