Basic Rules for Candid Photography
Thanks for the useful Tips.
I have done lots of candid photography at family functions (weddings, parties, get-togethers etc). Its true that people take you for granted after a while and forget your presence. I think they seclretly like being photographed. In fact they started to treat me like someone hired to cover the event ( oh let him do his job ). A lot of people were curious to see their pics, and asked for it. Grateful too when I emailed them their pics.
What was lacking in my pics was, patience i.e. the second tip. I was not waiting long enough to get the right expression or composition.
The aperture priority tip was also very useful. Though right now I just own a point & shoot, maybe in future.............
