RE: My Strange Neighborhood
Dude, toilet bowl flower pots? That's grotesque! 😁
Thank you so much! 🙇 I think the first photo would have been better if the guys were in it. But if they were actually sitting there, drinking and talking, I would have probably not taken a photo. See, I am afraid to point my camera at people...
I think the toilet bowl flower pots were a trend that never should've caught on. but if you google "toilet planter" you will see what I am talking about.
Here I was all along thinking I was the only photographer who was scared to point my camera at others. It makes me nervous for some reason.
I just googled the toilet planters 🚽 I don't understand how there are people in this world who like such stuff.
I dunno if it's the same for you, but for me, the biggest fear is that I might end up having a confrontation with the people I am taking pictures of. Maybe a longer 150mm + lens could solve this problem?
I don't know if it's the confrontation I fear, but maybe just the awkwardness of it.
Depending on the situation a longer lens could be helpful but that also intimidates people more. Usually no body says a thing to me when I am walking around with my phone but my dslr draws attention.
