Photographer’s Note

This is a shot of an intrestingly placed couple taking photos of the dancing. It made me smile anyway.

Hi hi, funny shot indeed, Stephen.
I like the mixture of cultures sharing the same passion.
Nice idea, congrats.

Sometimes these photographers are so funny :-)

I guess the title refers to the long and the short lens :-)

Funny indeed. Interesting to see that they both shoot with their right eye on the viewfinder and their left eye closed. While most shoot with their left eye, right eye being blocked by the camera. Thanks! Gilbert

most shoot with their left eye??? i'd have to disagree with that!

Hey Stephen,

Quite a funny shot. Not many photos make me chuckle to myself but this one did. Well spotted :)

I never shoot with my left eye.

Nice shot Stephen, you are improving a lot. This is well framed to eliminate unnecessary crap and where you couldnt crop you used shallower DOF to do that instead. The vertical format is ideal, its a tight photo. I do wish though that you had a bit more on the right side so that third photog wasnt so cut off at the lens.
