I take a lot of candid photos at cons. Some people bitch at me for it, but just as many thank me for the awesome unposed shots that result. One of the best photos I ever got at a con (and can't find in my archives, damnit!) was of a girl in an elevator with me, who I couldn't even see. She came in and got stuck on the opposite side of the crowded space. I hoisted my camera over the center of the car, pointed in the general direction of where she should have stopped, and snapped two shots. She didn't notice either, but found the results later online and wrote me a pretty gushing email about how awesome she looked in them.
