The other day
I unexpectedly found myself taking photos of an event as a volunteer. I was a little surprised when two of the
people I was photographing insisted on giving me tips on how to take a better
photo. And then there was another
gentleman. He may not be a professional
photographer, but he has all the equipment and his photographs are
amazing. He had brought his own camera,
much bigger and much better than mine, to the event and he asked me if I also
would take a photograph with his camera.
Being a bit intimated by his equipment and having just had the
experience with the other two, I suggested that he set up the shot, so that I
could take the photo exactly the way he wanted.
He looked at me and very kindly said, "Oh I'm sure it will turn out
just fine." I imagine that he cannot
possibly remember his kind and generous remark, but it was greatly appreciated
by me.
