This may sound a bit stupid but does anyone else feel embarrassed about stopping to take photos in public?

Nice.

I have to agree about tripods too, I was taking night photos in Kilkenny several months back with my trusty tripod, and I got all sorts of weirdos staring at me and asking me questions.

I then had a resident come up to me and tell me that I should look behind me as cars come that direction, as well as from in front of me. He must think I'm a 5-year-old.
