I wouldnt mind if its done in a non intrusive way. I hate when my photo is taken so I know how it is. im very sensitive when people are in other peoples personal space. as a photographer, im never pushy, never get in another person space, always smile and very charismatic when im with people at weddings. I know people say, crap, its only 1/125 of second, whats the problem? some people dont know there are places in the world where they think if you photograph them, that youre stealing some of their soul. with a hand on my heart, I salute Zack for the way he went about doing his walk around. so humble and so gentle. a real pro. then you see the barbaric way matt came and did his thing and the only thing he cared about was the review. lets put his attitude aside, the bigger problem was they way he pushed that 35mm lens in peoples faces. look at the composition and realize he was pretty close if he filled the image with the subjects he shot. and all it takes is for one person to go berzerk on him. I would do the Babu finger sway (from seinfeld) and tell him, no dont take a picture. and if he persisted like he did with the clerk selling seafood, I would smack his lens and camera without hesitation. thats not cool. u want to shoot, ask. from faurther away do what you want. I say, always put yourself in the position the other person is. treat others like you want to be treated.</blockquote>
