Photographers by the Wayside....show me yours!

Something I tend to notice more and more as I am out and about are photographers with their gear. And as much as we coax our subjects into good images, we frequently don't want to be the subject. But I am collecting a fair number of images of other photographers as I go about life with my camera. Here are a couple:

This one taken in Amsterdam while taking a Canal Boat Ride near the Red Light District:



This one is from the Farmer's Market at The Grove in Los Angeles



And this is from the Getty Museum in Los Angeles:

Hi Kathy,

You are quite right, we don't want to be the subject. So I am wondering whether those photographers would have objected? Or did you ask for their permission? LOLOLOL ;-)

Cheers,

Ha!

LoL as I think I may put a name on the 1st one, the 2 other pics are of the same photog, could be recognized about thousands! He's the only photog I know to look into his camera viewfinder thru glasses! and what a style to lay down to get a strange angle!

LoL and LL again

Thanks Kathy you made my (National) day better than Sarko!

Oh la la! It is Quatorze Julliet already, isn't it? Well, have lots of fun my friend and drink to us as well. We'll do the same

PS: Will you take some pictures of the fireworks above the boats in the harbour?
PS 2: Wouldn't you want to know which angle he was looking at? LOL

Cheers,

Well you know Cem; I feel more European than French, so, the 14 juillet… is spent at work writing some articles for the French Magazine Mer & Bateaux…

There is no real harbo(u)r in Bordeaux, and the fireworks are shot on the 13th(as well as the Bal des Pompiers): too late!

Re PS2 for sure I'd like to, but hmmmmm OPF is public fora… ;-) But as I know him, it could be a little mouse or a cute tiny hummer or a beautifull naked model as well! (now I can hear you LoLing ;-)

A couple from my recent (eventful!) trip to London

Loved the attitude of the second guy - surprised he didn't get stoped for causing an obstruction... incidentally, both were photographing the houses of parliament.

Last of all, me on my way to a meeting - sad I know.

Mike.
