As a hobbyist, I have a certain point of view on each type of professional photographer. From what I see, which could easily be from a skewed perspective, the paparazzi will do whatever it takes to get that million dollar cover shot. Of course, don't we all do whatever it takes to get that shot? But do all pros have to sit outside a house all night? Do all pros have to chase after their subjects, pushing and shoving everything that gets in their way just to get their camera in the action? Do all pros have to be absolutely ruthless, not only personally but physically as well just to get in the way?

Doing that for a living, to me, is mind blowing, when compared to sports photographers that can sit down and let the action come to them. Again, this comes from a pure hobbyist who never runs after a shot.

And are all pro's rude, incosiderate, invasive, annoying ? dont forget those traits that go to many papa's out there.

Yes, you have your more refinded ones who celebrities even know and respect, but for the most part, many papa's have no consideration for other people privacy and rights.

I'm curious, what would you have said had you decided to lie? "I fight white supremacy"? "I'm too good for Ls"?

Hey Servo'd, I've got an extra battery charger if you really need one.

Yeah and the amazing thing is I've amassed that collection of gear in just a few short weeks!

I think I detect an omission. You left out the silica gel packs that come with the equipment to keep moisture away. Surely you kept those.

I shoot candids of females all the time. I also know that a place like a mall is privately owned and they can make whatever rules they want, so I NEVER shoot there.

I guess what I'm saying is don't listen to the protesters in this thread, I say they are the ones who turn it into a "pervy" situation. That says something about them.
