Spotted :: Japan Train Life #5

in trainlife •  6 years ago 

Most watch their phones or a book as they wait. Some watch other people. And some watch those annoying foreigners who like to rudely take photos of other people. Barbarians.

Today’s #trainlife brought to you by hipstamatic, mextures, and people like you.

Haha! Here's 2 photos I took in March at the Dallas Arboretum - I was pretending to take flower photos! These kids were just so cute...

ha, that is a classic technique. I forget his name, but one of the big street photographers of the past actually rigged his camera so it took photos out of the side of it, allowing him to pretend to shoot something but actually shoot the person to his side.

I already saw your post. Thank you for the shoutout and congrats on your one year anniversary :) I resteemed it.

I love these kind of pics. My son had my phone awhile back and walked right up to a lady sitting on a bench and snapped a shot. One of the coolest photos I've ever (not) taken.

I often give my son an old iphone and let him snap photos like that. It is partially to build the love of photography in him, but also partially because when he takes photos of random people they will be more likely to smile, whereas if I do the same they are more likely to frown. Kids are good for that ;) You should share his shot—I'd love to see.
