There are always candid shots that can't be ignored:
Group Shot		Guess who I am?

Talk time		Time to listen to a wise sensei
Here, let me help.		Do you ever take pix of people who take pix?
Got to get that cockroach!		What's the phone number?
Is this the correct salute?		Think we should correct them?
Who? Me?		Next time you don't tie your obi right . . .
Nappy Time . . .		Gimme 5!
