Photographing the Photographer

[wray]

Taken yesterday at the Getty Museum in Los Angeles. Gotta love that Titanium Leica!

Olympus OM 2n, Fuji Superia 400, Epson V500 scanner

Leica ... I've heard that name before. Is that one of those cheap Chinese knockoffs?


(Diving into foxhole with thick overhead cover)

Goes to show you how little I know about Leica. Do they really have the self timer on the left of the body? Nice looking camera for sure. Good steady stance for use of building in lieu of a tripod.

Hi Ray

it looks like a dusty camera, the one he has!

Just a forum PSA - Here’s another similar thread where there’s more participation:

Photographing the Photographer... post yours

I am hooked on shooting other people in the act of shooting. Here is a shot from tonight at a fund raising event/art show where I captured a news photog from a local paper in action (yes, with an evil DSLR and monstrously-long lens; my shots are with an M8, 2.8 28 asph elmarit)...

Well that's annoying, that's where I meant to post it. Instead we have this nearly identically named thread in this subforum. 😤

Perhaps.

I found these two women at the Mostar Bridge. I have a romantic vision of what was happening. The mother is taking photos of her daughter whom she thinks is quite beautiful and wishes a happy and successful life. And the daughter takes photos of her mother whom she loves and wants the world to see in her beauty and grace. They caught me photographing them and smiled and posed for me. One of those moments we can have when we carry a camera. So here is the story in three images. And I hope that someone, somewhere told these two ladies that they have been seen by many.

Maybe the Mods can merge.

Paper Shoot Camera with K2 Yellow and ND8 filters (in an attempt to tame the exposure). This is a circuit board camera with cardboard “cases” and no focus or exposure control. It does “color” but I like the B/W better. The lens and sensor are almost microscopic in size!

Nothing romantic about this. Just a guy squatting down and hunched over his camera.
