Sneaky pix's, smile and the press
« on: April 13, 2008, 03:47:59 PM »
When you've go anywhere on your stilts you alway get someone looking at you !?
But some will take your picture too  :o
I do't know about you but unless I'm dressed like a scruf I don't mind people taking my picture  ;D

These people come in four types :-

The SNEAK - Will hold the camera at the hip and shoot it from there then hold carmare up to look at picture but now not pionting the camera at you ! :o

The SMILER/WAVER - Will either smile or wave hello and hold camera up to take your picture, say "BOCKERZ"  ;D

The HELLO - These are braver than the smilers as they can up and chat either before or after and are likely to ask, wave and say "BOCKERZ"  ;D

The final type is PRESS - Treat these like gold ! They could appear to be any of the other types at frist but once they take your picture they'll more than likely tell you who they are, ask where they want you to pose, wave ( if asked ) and say "BOCKERZ"   ;D   :banana:  :Straddle5:  ;D

I was just in Skegness and was crossing the road. In the corner of my eye I notice acouple of people one women with a big camera taking pictures of me  :o
I once across I start to pass them she stop me and told me she was the local Skegness newspaper
asked me a couple of question about what I was doing ( someone else rushed up ask if I was the one running down the road ? Yes ! ) back to the couple then he joined in !? He was also press for Bostons paper Could he have some too ( Stupid question  :biggrin: ). In the end I was jumping in the middle of the road was they could get the clock tower in back ground LOL.

So I get 2 for 1  :banana:

These actually produce some of the best and most artistic photos, I took a load of shots like that on holiday so the camel workers at the pyramids wouldn't spot me and demand money. I noticed I got a few good shots so started taking a lot like it and it created quite a few I liked... like these...

Was actually looking in the opposite direction in the above photo


Shot from hip without looking at camera at all


Again shot without looking

i done that style shooting at a party, but from the chest, greqat images, loads of cleavage shots  :nanadance:
but dk you hit it on the head, although ive had a few peple actually have the balls and decency to come and ask us if they can take pics first.
ill give these people whatever images they want, any trick with any background they want, just for asking.

The man said "I'm with the target I've got ID ...." I just said snap away I don't mind  ;D
I think most of us would say that ? We are all big posers   :biggrin:
If they would only ask they'd get a better picture even pose with us !

I dunno, I don't like bocking on my own as I get really self concious about everyone looking at me, which is why I'll usually go bock in quiet areas :-X If we're in a group I don't mind so much as I can hide behind others :P
