:sweat: Quite gulity of doing that often,
especially when doing street photography but only dare to do that overseas. the people generally more open to strangers taking their photo.
In Singapore, you turn around and suddenly shoot strangers, you will be killed if you do that.
During the opp rallies, people's emotions are flustered and rattled, was tempted to take photos of people at the rallies, but had the fear that people will literally kill you for that.
Emotions are so high, anything can happen. Best is to shoot quietly, do not argue with the public, have respect and apologise profusely for getting in people's way. Quite a few of the public were upset with the official media photographers at the rallies. "Take photo for what, also never put on newspaper" (in hokkien). Don't aggrave the already aggravated
I wonder why the official media photographers don't do that? Apologise if you shove, or need to get to your destination.
Got stepped on and shoved by a few of them. (ouch i wearing slippers) So aggressive. I was so scared.

the more i thought the more i feel, the photographer could be at fault too..
the other day i was at an opposition rally..not taking pics but listening..
dan there's this photographer who walked in front of us, suddenly turned around and took 2 continous shots after which he just walked off quickly..(preplanned?)
even thou i myself is a photographer i felt that was kind of rude.
