Please don't mind me saying...

No one appreciates anyone standing on a ladder at a concert. Whether or not you're a photographer. How would anyone like if a group of non-photographers bring ladders & construct a wall just to "have a better view"? It's totally unacceptable for both photographers & non-photographers alike!

I'm surprised that these people (I don't care if you have a big gun) don't feel pai say at all. :sticktong

guess they are not pai say at all, wonder what kinda of image does a Singaporean photographer project when tourists see this...a few ang mo were disgusted when the moment the "wall" appeared in front of them, they tried to peek thru holes under the armpits, in between gaps...then they just walk off.

...paper bullets with thumbtacks will work just fine..just aim and FIRE. hahahahahaha.

For practical purposes, the decent thing the event organiser can do is to allocate a distance for the "serious :sticktong photographers" to plant their scaffolding. And leave the front for the other spectators & photographers without ladders.

Of course, this doesn't include the official photograher for the event.

Cheers!

i think they did that in one of the fashion shows in Raffles but was only for official photographers, then while behind the barracade, the "ladder gang" built their wall there.

Good suggestion for you, maybe they should have a PAY-TO-SHOOT stand, then those not paying will be told to keep their cameras by security/organizers.

Bet the ladder force gang is planning to invade Marina again. Some may even be there with breakfast/lunch and dinner all packed and sitting on their ladders right now. Sure got Ah Bengs ask them to get off the ladder, with lots of stuff flying towards the photographers. Then if on the second level, they still use ladder, may the gravity force be with them when they fall off. hahahahahahaha.
