Travel photography--long lens or interaction? Up until now a lot of my images are of people walking away and I'm pretending that's my style. The truth is I'm just not sure how to approach someone and end up with a natural looking shot. For example the following images(they're not stellar, but they do illustrate the point.

Surprisingly most people like to have their picture taken, just ask! Also , I missed some great shots because all I took with me was a long lens, now my 28-80 seems to be my "go to" lens

Thanks Tom, but what would you have said to the girl in the image "Maya Girl" ? I needed her not to look at the camera,I might have moved her a bit to a more interesting background and I think I would have preferred something a little more relaxing and more creative than "May I take your picture?" I feel like I'm missing a story--which is why I said it was flat. Does this just mean more time with a subject to find her story? I guess I need a chat-up line (grin)

should've asked "whatcha doin'?" They know you're not from there so it's not like they don't know you're there taking pictures.
