Photographing the Photographer (D3 Street!)

[Arne Hvaring]

Great images Jono, you should go to town more often! I particularly like no 3, the Rodin-esque stoic figure to the right juxtaposed with the ducking photograper.

Here's another in the same vein (photographing the Photographer(s)). Although taken with a M8, I suppose content comes before equipment

Vine-lovers.

I don't know what they were shooting, but the stance that the women's holding looks hellishly uncomfortable for doing ANYTHING let alone taking a picture.

 

[Vivek]

I wouldn't post a picture (even captured accidentally) of any woman caught in such a pose.

 

[Guy Mancuso]

Does anyone ever get on there knees anymore. Geez

Actually probably the only way she can bend down without splitting those extremely tight jeans she is wearing

LOL - well, that's the advantage of an E3 - (flip out LCD and live view). Me? my trousers ALWAYS have dirty knees, and, my elbows are always dirty too (yep, I lie on the ground as well).

As for that lady's pose, well, possibly the three of them aren't quite style icons (at least she's putting some effort into it!).

My humble contribution to the genre (from Kyoto, Japan):

I call it "Tradition and Modernity".

Lisa, that's a beautiful capture!

Here's another one, taken during a bridge opening. All photographers were taking photos of this huge ummmm.... thing, except one. S3 with Tamron 24-135mm:

Can't see the pic, Jorgen.

Nice capture Lisa, although I don't know how modern that is. the girls are photographing themselves with a disposable film camera

Oooh that looks like the tip of the Royal Roto-Rooter!

No IR/UV-Filter?

 

[Arne Hvaring]

No IR/UV-Filter?

Correct, they were back-ordered at the time. I waited for someone to mention it

 

[Steen]

Oh, I just thought it was some fanatic Bordeaux lover

 

[jonoslack]

Oh, I just thought it was some fanatic Bordeaux lover

congratulations - I didn't give it a second thought - I guess he looked like the kind of guy who would wear a matching maroon shirt and backpack!

 

[Arne Hvaring]

That might also be the case, after all they're photographing the vines of Château Prieuré-Lichine in Margaux!
Cheers, skål!

This is one of my cohort, Jack. We were covering a retirement party Friday night at Black Water Marina.

I really like your #4 photo, Jono! As was said upthread: very sculptural!

Here's a shot from Stockholm with my two passions; photographer and guitarist:



M8, CV Ultron 35/1.7

I can't leave this one, also from Stockholm, out of a thread about photographing photographers:



Same rig as above. Pardon my Leica cooties.
