[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Being observed... continues…

They say : To be a photographer is to be an observer...

Oh, well...
Let us think for a moment...

Throughout my entire life, as soon as I hang that black box on my neck or on my shoulder - I am the one who is being observed...

Constantly.. Non-stop... Closely...

Another example…

Trip on one of the fastest ferries in the world, between Portland, Maine -USA, and a Yarmouth Nova Scotia, Canada.
500 cars, two casinos, three restaurants, 55km/per hr. of pure, exciting, windy orgasm….
It is only natural that shooting some seagulls (or, some 'oh, so blue' - water) seems to be an only option (just in case if you folks, haven't seen the photos of seagulls or water- yet ?), but nooo….

There is always someone who will block the view…
Someone who is OBSERVING you closely…

No… No posing for you… No just an eye contact…
That stuff I can manage on my own…

Observing! Observing what are you doing in there…!!!
Who knows? Maybe that guy with camera is some kind of pervert or pedophile…?
You never know… Better be sure…


How you guys out there… How you can work as the accomplished artist photographers in such conditions - beats me…?
Can you only imagine folks, how beautiful
that fotka - schmotka would be if not that rude intruder who had spoilt my entire view…?


Being constantly watched… What a pain in the neck…!







Talk to me folks, about your experience...
I know it happens constantly to all of you out there…


Or... Is it only me…?

camilla?... got cought cheating charles?... and thought you were some kinda paparazzi?... she was younger than of course, but nothing compared to diana of course...

i like her smiling eyes george, there's no need to see her teeth, is there?...

take care pal... at least at the weekend>:P...

korkut

Fess up, George--are you having an affair with Camilla, and she doesn't want you photographing her? If Charles reads TE, you're in deep doo-doo. Next time she'll know not to wear red, so you won't want her in your picture. Nice of that person on the right (Camilla's personal assistant?) to wear red, too, and give balance to the shot. Regards, Ken.

Caught!!!!
and now she has been made public by you.
ha ha ha.
Pain in the neck does bring laurels.
Her eyes are glittering and she is smilling behind the veil..........who doesn't want to be clicked?

Take care,
Rajeev

Naaahhh!, George! Korkut, Ken and Rajeev are wrong: no Camilla. Just a woman. And you know, my dear...women are attracted by charming men, okay? Or not? This is the reason because she is looking to you. Take care, dear...
Ehi...this is a nice pic, I like it!

Piekne spojrzenie (z dwoch stron) na piekny, ulotny moment...Uwiecznione oko w czasie.
Kolory takie, ze zazdrosc mnie zzera.
Pozdrawiam. Grazyna.

She is really playing with you, challenging you... What happened next ???

Great fun - no "pain in the neck" at all I guess !

Keep on having fun and making us laugh,
Katarzyna

She is really admiring that that canon F-1 - I recognise her she is the photo editor of the Portland Daily Record - I think she clocked you clocking her and whilst not recognising you as a staffie thought you were a freelancer put up to stalk her - everyone knows Camilla's eyes never really smile - no she has you sussed - wrongly as it turns out but sussed - yes observing you closely - amused and defensive in a nice way ......but oh if only she could see the way you have framed her in the boat and offset her so well at the edge of the frame - caught her hair and her watch and the twinkle in her eye and how graceful she looks at the age she is - inhabiting it and fully alive..........yes photographers are observers and picture editors are nervous ...........

......or is it the Maine Chronicle? .....or the Yarmouth Telegraph.......I forget now........

love and fishes bro!

What a coincidence - I went out for a drink at my local last night and got chatting with the cook and where did she come from but Yarmouth CA and we got talking about the old Blue Nose and how much faster it was when the Cat came in........small world!

w przeciwieństwie do wielu krytyków z "naszego kręgu", w tym pana g.g. - ja nie czepiam się takic h rzeczy jak niebieski śnieg, czy brązowa, niczym zmiażdżona drzwiami czy wręcz imadłem dłoń kobiety której plamy na twarzy wskazują na problemy wątrobowe raczej niz na opaleniznę... dla mnie - liczy się chwilaq, liczy się moment, liczy się kontakt (zainscenizowany, znaleziony, przypadkowy, jakikolwiek)...
prezentacja - to jedno,
serce - to drugie,
technika/warsztat - to jeszcze cos innego...
ale - imho - najważniejsze - to "duchowość" zdjecia... ono tutaj jest...
pozdr. j.
