    Here’s how it should have gone:

    photographer waiting for good lighting

    Embassy doesn’t feel nervous because they have at least one iota of experience observing humans

    Another pretty good scenario:

    photographer waiting for good lighting

    Embassy: Hey why are you hanging around out there?

    Photographer: oh I’m just writing for the light to good for this very common tourist photo opportunity

    Embassy: okay, but please don’t take photos of us

    Here’s another situation:

    photographer waiting for good lighting

    Police: Hey we got a call that you’re loitering here, and it’s making people nervous. What are you up to?

    Photographer: I don’t think I need to explain myself, it’s pretty obvious I’m trying to get a good photo of the very common tourist photo opportunity.

    Police: okay just make sure you’re not blocking the sidewalk.
