Smoker
This was taken in the amazing Kota Belud Tamu market in Sabah. This man was sitting next to a tobacco seller, puffing away, and not noticing the people around him, including camera-toting me. The sunlight was hitting him in the back and I saw that the smoke enveloping him was glowing, so I took the shot. Again, the AF was useless in the smoky haze, so I had to switch to manual focus.

Tip: Look around all the time, especially with your peripheral vision, and catch things that are going on around you before you put the camera to your eye.
