I'm so surprised that you say...Congratulations! I'm so surprised that you say you didn't enjoy the exercise and didn't consider yourself very good at it. I learnt so much from studying what you did and consider you a far better photographer than me. The interesting thing for me was how willing and how flattered complete strangers were to have their photo taken. They were bemused but I didn't get too many rejections. I get much more suspicion when I try street photography, which is difficult with a big camera. It never occurs to me to hold it low and use the screen, always feel more comfortable looking through the viewfinder. It also surprises me that you mostly shot that way. Mind you, because you are tall, your chest shots would be from my normal perspective :)Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03182743312553270315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025185028400769912.post-10833955307473852882013-03-30T00:43:39.322+11:002013-03-30T00:43:39.322+11:00Yes Cara, there's a big difference I think bet...Yes Cara, there's a big difference I think between wearing the "guise" of some sort of official capacity, and just bowling up to people with selfish purpose!<br /><br />The former I even enjoy!<br /><br />Hope to see a few more of yours here eventually!<br />bitingmidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12593806233011328620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025185028400769912.post-33308255989699269052013-03-29T22:21:48.886+11:002013-03-29T22:21:48.886+11:00Wow. Well done, Peter. I wish I could be mentally ...Wow. Well done, Peter. I wish I could be mentally jogging around in circles at the top of the steps with a towel around my neck, celebrating with you but I haven't found it any easier to ask people for their picture. I don't consider myself a shy person at all. I guess I just don't like the suspicious looks I get when I ask. Having said that, I was at a fundraiser the other day and the local magazine asked me to take some snaps for the social pages. I was really comfortable with that because people knew what the photo was for and were happy for me to point a camera in their faces. <br /><br />I'm interested that you take photos from chest height. I'd never noticed that.<br /><br />Congratulations on reaching the top. It's been a long climb!carahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787018321269238581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025185028400769912.post-69498809822011282312013-03-29T16:58:03.517+11:002013-03-29T16:58:03.517+11:00Great !
