No Photos Please :: Japan Train Life #2

in #photography7 years ago

Hounded by the paparazzi.

Shooting at the station really isn't something I do often. Not that I don't want to, but usually I am on the run somewhere or I want to get home to be with my kids. But when I do take the time to shoot some station photos, I always enjoy it. Most folks are indifferent to being photoed—they are too much in a hurry to care. But occasionally you get a great reaction like that woman there gave me.

This photo is my entry in @juliank's #streetphotography contest.

Very nice pic !

And yet now she's famous... (well... you get my point). I was already struggling with the ethics of taking a picture of a witch-hazle in somebody's front garden. People can get possessive of their plants....
I wonder if she would have a legal foot to stand on. Suppose she had verbally asked you not to post her picture up? Some tribes believe taking a photo of them is bad for their soul, after all....
Let's send the lady some positive vibes and thank her for her contribution to your great thought-provoking post!
