Those serious photographers

[cliveh]

I thought this video amusing and is not meant as a dig at digital photography, as we have some of the same type of photographers using film.

Hilarious! Film, digital, movie, video, it doesn't matter - I see these types too. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

An amusing video indeed! And it highlights the difference between camera-play and subsequent picture-making.

Camera-play is a way of interacting with people, with events, with things in the real world that covers the range from respectful honoring to provocative bullying. A classic example of the provocateur approach is that of a French photographer who could throw his Leica at the face of a stranger (at a range slightly longer than the length of the neck-strap) and snap the startled result. The quiet approach could be Walker Evans' photographs of subway passengers who were unaware of or uncaring of his camera-play. Both approaches afford pictorial advantages and both invite moral analysis.

That's what it said when I tried but clearly it didn't always say this based on previous posters' reactions. Has something changed or have others who have viewed somehow logged-in or registered?
