Photographing birds and animals are quite often easier than photographing people. Well, at least they don't make faces back at me! I've always been very hesitant to approach others to take their photo, partly because I find myself in adept as a portrait photographer but more because I find it difficult to approach people. Sometimes I have got away with some candid and surreptitious shots, but they are far from satisfactory. Eh bien, no one wants to be approached by an impolite guy with a 'gun'. So I was just learning to approach people and politely ask them for a photograph.

But just as a word of caution, people in few parts of the world do not like to photographed even if you approach them politely. Esp. in the Arab culture, its almost taboo to take someone's photo as they believe that the person's soul is also captured in the photo.
