I often see some brillant moments where there is a great dynamic or interaction going on - people with each other or with the environment - and I wish I was brave enough to take the shot!

Here is my favourite though

I took this over the summer during a residential week with young people with disabilities - I teach photography on the course.  We do a whole range of activities and this one is from our mini panto.  I was a drunken evil Santa Claus who robbed Lady Penelope (pictured).  I took this shot while she was watching what was going on around her.  She has extremely limited speech and mobility, yet here she was a full part of our activity. I thought she was very inspiring. One thing I learnt from her and others who were there, is that you don't always need words to communicate. I think this picture says it all.
