Description
...is a difficult taskSo there we were, standing in the middle of the road in Paris with nowhere to go. I pull out my big honking camera and take, what it would look like to the unsuspecting eye, a photo of the arch way off in the distance there. . .but these people were standing in front of me and were trying to get out of the photo, being polite and all. . .
Guess they didn't know i had a wide angle lens on
July 24 Post DD Edit:
So I had an extremely long day today. I'm tired, I'm still at work (believe it) and I'm really just itching to go home. I log on here to discover I've received a DD. For one of my personal favorite street shots.
Thanks dA.
Thanks to everyone who stops by and comments / favorites.
Oh yeah, and keep shooting street.

Haha, that guy's leaning backwards too
People don't seem to realize that there are photographers who are actually aiming to get other people in the shot
Great illustration and congrats on a DD well deserved.

Yeah i've always found it really amusing that the two cute Japanese tourists we're being escorted around by a french guy. It's pretty priceless.
