Hello Frank, Well, I'm just a lone wolf, I always shoot alone. I like to take my time, but I would feel uncomfortable seeing all the others waiting for me to fire that damned shutter at once. In those moments I'm very concentrated, you may shoot a cannon behind me, and I likely wouldn't notice... Some people may interpret this wrongly as not paying attention to their presence, which is the last thing I want.
There is not a single shop in the whole town where you can buy a new SLR. Only two shops which occasionally have used ones brought in by customers (half the cameras needs repairing). So going out with a camera bag and a SLR around my neck makes me look definitely like a geek. Not to mention the cases when I take my tripod. Even if it is a lightweight Velbon CX-300, definitely amateurish, I get many people staring at me. Just my cents. Attila
