Carrying your camera in the wrong way?
I was inspired by a piece by Dina Litowsky
Ooops. I was not aware that I was carrying the camera in the wrong way and according to her this is very unprofessional…
BUT:
I think it's an absolutist position yours, because it depends by many factors the decision and in particular:
- if you carry the camera all the time and not just "when you are hired to cover an event"
- the type of camera
- if I go to shopping I also carry the camera with me and I can't think to make that just because is cool, I have shopping bags too!
- Same when I go with my dog (surprise also in that case I need a camera with me!)
- I take bus and metro and I would not make this you recommend in Mexico!
Usually I appreciate her content, and I know her goal was a thought provoking post but...just disagree on this.
A friend helped me sharing a photo (thanks Deborah!):
Clearly here we see a total unprofessional guy, also a little misogynist…the only think I notice really is that his camera is cool and also mine is cool:
You know guys, absolutism and a will to say what you should make is part of the sensationalist era we live. Don’t believe that and just make what you want and what makes you feel good. Here and from my person you will not find never this. I am not the father of anyone, in my life and I don’t want to play as a father for others.
I am not interested not even in likes or the hype of the internet. Usually I make to speak my photos for me.
