You can take a picture of anything and anyone you want in a public place. A
good place to practice would be Oxford Street, which is far too busy for
people to take any notice of that sort of thing. Besides, it's so heavily
monitored by CCTV it would be laughable for anyone to complain about a still
camera.

Nice one, frank. I love her  expression. (Although she probably smiled like 
that because she saw you taking  her picture.)

Unless it's terrorists you're shooting, in which case you could end up

If it's in a public place (with _very_ few exceptions) where there may be no 
expectation of privacy, it is your choice alone as to whether to trip the 
shutter or not.

A lovely shot, I really like it much. Very well captured the moment.

I would like to do street photography too, but I am always afraid of what
people will do if I point my lens toward them. Also I lack the knowledge
of the laws in UK according to take a photograph of a person (without
his/her permission).

Thanks, Jack.

Actually, I'm a bit frustrated with this one.  A second or two before,
I got a shot of the same vendor and shopper, but both were looking
away.  It was ~way~ sharper, but totally uninteresting.

Then I walked a few steps, looked back and saw the vendor smiling at
me so I snapped.  I guess in my haste I didn't hold the camera very
still, because the vendor in particular is not very sharp.

Oh well.

Everything in life is a compromise, and I ended up choosing a more
interesting subject matter over something that's technically superior.
 That's the way it is sometimes.

Thanks for your kind words.

cheers,
frank
