Being photographed

[Brother Falldown]

For 5 years I made my living busking ( U.S. trans = panhandling? ). Photographed many times daily. Rarely did anyone ask for permission, but most put something in the bowl. Some thought a smile was enough. Others seemed to believe they had the right to record anyone dressed unusally. I just try to accept that in this world there are the good, the bad and the ugly.Try to stay closer to the good.

Robbie,

Only the olfs too cheap to tip (and certain municipalities) consider it panhandling! Street performing has an ancient and honorable (ancient anyway) history. The Salvation Army Bell Ringer is more a panhandler than the busker providing entertainment.
