Hey everyone! Okay, so this photograph is one I am so proud of and probably my favorite photograph I took in 2011. Now for me, I am always taking photographs in my head, I see the photo before I even bring the viewfinder to my eye, this I feel makes it easy when it does come time to take the photograph because you just need to connect the dots in a sense. That being said, I didn’t want to take a photograph of this man any other way then the way you see it right now. So to make it all happen I had to follow this man three or four blocks until I had the chance, call me a stalker I don’t care I believe this photograph was worth it! Feel free to leave your thoughts.
Your work is great. If you are a match for our collective, we would love for you to submit this and/or other photos.
Excellent. How do you manage to get so close to people ?
Thanks for the comment man! Um, to be honest the key is just confidence, just going for it! With this particular photograph I had envisioned how I wanted the photograph the look and what you see her is what I saw in my mind so I had no choice but to get close. This man reacted in a very polite way, almost like it was nothing, I said thank you and smiled and moved right along. It was perfect, sometime people will give you trouble but nothing you can’t diffuse with a smile and kindness=)
Thanks for the tip !
