It’s always wise to be very aware of your surroundings, as most of us are well aware.

Better not shooting alone if possible.

Agreed that shooting alone is more risky. I also question the wisdom of chasing after the vehicle. They could have had a gun and used it.

Hi
This seems to be present world side.
When my friend and I were photographing Green Bee Eaters some guys - clearly were on drugs- were about to come and threaten us. Fortunately we realised it time and made tracks before they could come close to us. We have to be careful we are living in a dangerous world.
