Photographing the photographer


I do not know how clumsy or funny looking I am when behind the camera while busy shooting pictures during a commercial shoot or during street photography.

It has always interested me photographing the photographer/s. There were far and few during the analog age, but still one could find quite interesting shoots.









Today with digital age we have all kinds of camera from mobile cameras, to thin credit card types, pro-cameras and so on. Mobile phones today come in almost all models and they have become so very common.  Each one has one in one's pocket. I always avoided buying a mobile phone with a camera, but kids bought me one so I also happen to use it quite occasionally taking pics of my grand children. Times have changed and will keep on changing.



Taj Mahal is one monument that receives the maximum foot fall all round the year irrespective of the weather conditions. There is hardly any visitor who is not carrying one or the kind of camera. I had enough of the shoot taking various angles of the monument.


It is such a nice feeling to be sitting on the marble floor, it is real cool and relaxing. Looking around seeing people, I found people standing or sitting in the funniest stances while taking a pics.

Seeing people making various kinds of poses when being photographed. It is also a free for all for photographers as many a times people like try and capture some thing interesting to show case in some place or the other.
I am sure no words of description are required for the few photos posted within this story. I am sure there would be many with better enjoyable photos, but this is a small contribution with a hope to gain more by your comments.
