Street Vendor Getting Shy

Shot at Chinatown in Bangkok, Thailand.

Walking through the street like a market, I came to another street. It was modest and was not crowded. It was nice to walk at leisure. Yet there were also some food stalls on such a street.

The man in this photo worked in one of the stalls. He placed wagon with a griddle by the roadside and cook Thai crepe while he listened to the music.

I was attracted by his easygoing atmosphere. And I approached him. The man wearing earphones noticed me and cast an eye on me. And he found my camera. Then, he changed his expression. He seemed to get shy. Although the street was not deserted and his job was to sell snacks to passing-by persons, it might be uncommon to be focused on a camera by a stranger.
