I used to do quite a bit of street photography in Istanbul. It is an awesome way of learning to talk to strangers. The more comfortable you become the more comfortable others are with you. Truly the best kind of rejection therapy around.

This guy ended up buying me tea: http://mustpax.deviantart.com/art/View-from-the-top-34181357

Is anything where there's a possibility of hearing a 'no' rejection therapy? Asking people if you can take their photo before doing so is just being considerate.
He was taking portraits. Not really possible to do without the subject cooperating.
Look forward to seeing what else he comes up with. He's definitely got the skills.
Mamma mia! Nice shot! Shows you you can get when you get out of your comfort zone and ask.
