Nice shot again! You often use hipshots. Is that an artistic choice or just easier to photograph people a bit less obtrusive / without them noticing? ๐
Thank you! It’s an artistic choice. I like the effect of looking up at subjects, plus it also has the advantage of removing some of Tokyo’s clutter that can often be very distracting. I still have to get close, and sometimes crouch down rather than shoot from the hip, so very little chance of going unnoticed!
Linda says
Did he react fast enough to get a photo of you too?
Lee says
No. Or at least not that I know of!
Denton says
Very cool shot! Great framing and atmosphere. He doesnโt look so happy about the camera being turned on him! ๐
Lee says
Cheers. Certainly happy with the result. And no, he doesn’t, does he…?
