I wasn't quite sure how to approach this exercise so I decided to try a couple of different methods. For the first two images I stood and observed the people and the scene for a while first in order to predict their movements then waited for a certain moment before I released the shutter. When you study people for a while you notice their little habits and can sometimes predict when they will do certain things or make certain gestures.
The images for this exercise were taken at the same event as the last exercise. I wasn't quite sure how to approach this exercise so I decided to try a couple of different methods.

I stood and watched the brass band while they performed and noticed the young boy on the left in IMG F80A3989 kept looking up at the conductor every few minutes so I waited and captured him as he did. It did take a few attempts though as his glance only lasted a split second. IMG F80A4002 was a little easier as the conductor's bow at the end of the performance lasted a little longer. The second set of images were taken during a performance by a fire eater. I used continuous shooting and chose the images which best display the moment when reviewing them later on the computer. These are the images which, in my opinion, best capture gestures, the nature of the act and the reaction of the crowd.
