Boom! by grammyn

Boom!

I thought of @espyetta and her get pushed challenge to photograph people as I was uploading this shot tonight. This guy was at dinner and I just set my camera on the table and looked the other way as I zoomed in for the shot. Easy Peasy!
Vee

You are so clever with your sneakiness!
July 27th, 2013  
Cool shot
July 27th, 2013  
Ha ha, you do make me laugh, but I have done the self same thing as well, however never managed a good shot like this. Well done!

BAM! It looks like he is aware of your rascality :D
Great portrait, Katy! The B & W works well with this shot.
July 27th, 2013  
Easy peasy until he comes across the table and throttles you! haha Just kidding! Did he know what you were doing? He seems like he does with his expression. I have tried what you are saying and cut off heads and all sorts of things! Good job, Katy! You are good at the sneaky shot!

@silverlight Sneaky is the easiest way for me. Thanks Cheryl.
July 27th, 2013  
@deburahiru LOL! Thanks so much! i don't think he knew but I never know for sure!
July 27th, 2013  
@espyetta I don't think he really knew because eye contact was never made. If you look closely you will notice I cut off part of his head too but it was the best of several shots I took so I just went with it. After all it isn't a formal portrait! Thank you for all your kind support, MB!

@grammyn he is probably just scanning around the joint. :0) every tome I see my pretty refrigerator magnets, I think of our fun visit last month and smile. :0) hope your summer is going great. I have 3 more days of freedom .. Plan to use Monday to work in room but do. It have to...so I guess that is different
July 27th, 2013  
@espyetta ;~{ So sorry your freedom is at an end. You gave me many happy memories and so much fun too, MaryBeth!
July 27th, 2013  
You are good at being sneaky
July 27th, 2013  
You really have guts. And a close up at that. I just have such a rough time taking shots like this.
July 28th, 2013  
@digitalrn Thanks(?) I think! ;~} I think that is part of the fun!
July 28th, 2013  
@cdonohoue Sometimes I do too but I have a bridge camera with a good lens and i find if I can set up the shot without bing discovered I can keep my hand on the button and looks somewhere else as I take the shot and it seems to help!
July 28th, 2013  
Wonderful shot and love it in B&W. You are so sneaky.
July 28th, 2013  
I like the shot but...I would never have the nerve to do that....you are so devious..lol...were you a spy in a previous life?
July 28th, 2013  
@darsphotos Thanks, Darlene. I guess that adds to the fun for me!
July 28th, 2013  
@jayberg LOL! Thanks Jay. Devious...........probably, a spy ? who knows. I do love mysteries and spy stories so maybe it rubbed off on me.
July 28th, 2013  
Think he caught you!
July 29th, 2013  
Nice Candid.
July 29th, 2013

July 29th, 2013  
OOOhhhhh sneaky!!! I don't think he's after katy though MB @espyetta, I'm pretty sure he's hunting wabbits.
July 30th, 2013  
@m9f9l OMG! Hee hee Elmer Fudd! He needs a hunting cap and gun. You have a good eye, M9! I was trying to figure out what hew as making me think of! Probably Elmer. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elmer_Fudd
July 30th, 2013  
@m9f9l @espyetta Elmer would have been a GREAT title for this if only I had known!
July 30th, 2013
