[Leica] maybe OT: street photography

[pburphoto at gmail.com (Paolo Burlando)]

Found on a website of a French street photographer.. some (all?) of it look 
to me true (and funny)

Symptoms of bad street photography day:

- your first exposure is all white. ISO?s are still set at last night?s 1600.
- your first exposure is all black. You left the lens cap on.
- the first person you shoot starts running after you.
- the first person you shoot runs faster then you.
- you went out with a wide-angle lens but wish you had your standard lens on.
- you went out with a standard lens but  wish you had your wide-angle lens 
on.
- nothing interesting is happening, everybody is just damn walking today.
- you ask your girlfriend to act like she is stranger and run after pigeons  
(?and please honey, don?t smile or look at the camera?)
- you start shooting some experimental stuff (and delete them straight away).
- you start shooting bikes, street signs, or worse ? landscapes.


Symptoms of great street photography day:

- aliens land next to you while you walk alone by the Seine River on a misty 
Sunday morning.
- and they took Megan Fox along.
