A tribute thread to the many who wave and greet me as they pass while I'm taking their picture!
Especially young people are often alert and like the attention.
"Peace" - don't see that very often here in Copenhagen. But in Japan the peace sign is almost ubiquitous whenever you take a portrait or group shot.
It happens that people wave for my attention to make sure I get their picture.
I do get the occasional signal or request not to take someone's picture. Fortunately, there's enough happy people to go around.
Happy Cycling!
Nice series. Thank you.

ooops ... 'proletriat'= 'proletariat' ....am punishing my refractory fingers.
