Such an impressive hair-style...

... couldn't be missed as a blip opportunity.

I took a couple of shots of the lad as he chatted animatedly to his two friends, not realising they were actually a working team.

It was only when I was about to move off that one of the others said 'Good Afternoon, sir' and became intent on getting me to sign up to something or other. This street snapper made a quick exit from what were probably an adept group of charity muggers.

The jury will take some time deciding whether I was the sneaky one or they were.
