Portraits, 2 3 Train

^{1/250th at F2, ISO 3200 (35mm). Fuji X100.}

If you notice on the left you can see my reflection.  It looks like I'm shooting with my eyes closed, but actually I'm using the viewfinder in the back to compose the shot.  I shoot this way in certain situations because it allows me to compose the shot without tipping people off that I'm photographing them.  It looks like I'm just fiddling around with the controls.

Also, I prefer the slightly lower angle because it makes people appear larger and more prominent.
