And top photographers make it look so easy.
So, if you have the right settings on the camera, it should be easy:
- you see it;
- you focus;
- you shoot.
That's it.
Well, that's hardly it.
This is me:
"- Hey, a cool scene. This will look great..."
"- Wait, wait, he's/she's/they are looking my way..."
"- I'm gonna get in trouble. I'll wait until they look away..."
"-Wait..."
"-Wait..."
"-Move away, you little §£@ €/#?$!%&!, you're ruining the shot!"
"- Wait a little longer..."
"- Waiiiiit... "
"- Damn! They're going away! Damn! "
A missed oportunity.
Simply, for now I just don't have the guts to stick a lens right in the face of other people. I know I could use a longer lens and shoot from far away, but that's not what I like to see. Just love a wide angle lens effect!
So I feel like I'm the King of Lost Oportunities, but I'm sure I'm noth the only one.
See you!

Very nice post and oh I can see you waiting there and I can find myself in that situation lol.. And the picture is very nice I think you nail it
ReplyDeleteI agree =) Very interesting composition that works. The lines on ground and background are leading the gaze.
DeleteIt seems to me if I was to live from photography, I would die of starvation!
ReplyDeleteNonetheless, we have fun while shooting our cameras. That's about it... ;D
Yes indeed that is the thing. We can smile be happy and shoot ..
ReplyDeleteI thought 'Street photography' is about shooting streets, not the people... =P
ReplyDeleteAnyway, surely not my cup of tea =D I gladly leave that to professionals.
Lol. That means "Avenue Photography" needs a medium format camera? Avenues are larger than streets! =D
DeleteAnyway, you should give it a try. It won't bite... 😆
Hmm... Then I need to choose "alley photography". More suitable for pocket cameras =)
DeleteBy the way... I didn't know there's an option to give image caption. Very useful!
ReplyDeleteIt is useful, isn't it ? :D
