This can be used to advantage. I've known freelance stills photogs throw a red herring by getting a mate with a camera to suddenly break free from the pack and run like hell down the street away from the waiting herd (say outside of court, or waiting for a celeb to emerge from a building) - and at least half of the herd follow thinking the runner has seen something they haven't. Means you have less competition if you can time it right as half of them are full pelt in the wrong direction as you grab a few frames between building and taxi. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ---------- http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
