Is there any standard way to convince an ugly person to look in a
particular direction? Discreetly? |

(in ): Is there any standard way to convince an ugly person to look in a particular direction? Discreetly? There are too many factors psycological and environmental, for both the shooter and/or the subject to be able to provide a single standard answer. You say the subject is ugly, but who has made that determination, you the shooter, or the subject? You say you want to make the subject behave in a certain way by looking in a certain direction, discreetly? That tells me you are trying to capture a candid image without the subject’s approval. Is this a person you know, and can relate to, or is this a question general and you want to capture a shot of a stranger? Is this meant to be a candid shot, or is the subject being posed? Does the subject know you are trying to capture their image? Is the subject truly ugly, or does he/she just have a poor self image? Each scenario requires a different technique. If you know the subject, just ask,, even if you don’t know the subject, just ask, and see where that leads. Otherwise you might have to be somewhat sneaky. -- Regards, Savageduck |

There isn't a camera he doesn't love, even if it is a Russian camera. The resulting images are nauseating. -- Regards, Savageduck |
