I can't see why people nowadays like to pose with their DSLR. The weird pose like camwhoring themselves infront of the mirror with the DSLR covering one of their eye. Is it a new trend started to take over the peace sign pose on photos? Sooner, the peace sign is faded away and you can't even see any sign on photos but only the pose with one eye. Much like a pirate with his eye patch, perhaps DSLR is more than the eye patch. It's the best precious thing to me if I would have one. So yeah, Alvin! Stop throwing ur DSLR on bed, put it in order please. Alright, you can obviously get the strong smell of jealousy here. In fact, I do want a DSLR. It need not to have extra optical lenses or zoom, cause I just need it to capture HQ photography. It doesn't have to be x 1000000 zoom, not like I'm gonna shoot a dinosaurs from a few miles away, not like I'm a reporter or mass com student. That's right. I want it badly just like how desperate you wannabe a superstar. Have been craving for cash, found a lot of freelance job from website, had sent them resume but I don't seems to have any feedback! Why? Couldn't be FP (face problem) right? So, if you think that's the problem, you might probably a dumb ass.
DSLR, the precious eye patch.Like this? Does it looks more professional?Kinda..
But
I would prefer this kindda pose.
This is obviously nicer, to me. At least you know what's the object you're targeted when camwhoring. It's you, the charming faces. Unless your targeted object is the DSLR, you can put it else where to get a best shot rather than using it to hide one of your eye.
That's all about my opinion, no offense okay? Of cause you can do whatever pose you like, it's up to you. You can even naked yourself, I don't care much . Because I usually don't comment/criticize on any of the nude photos I've accidentally seen on internet. Some of you might think it's all about ART and Scientology told me it's all about organs. And Who cares as long as it's not yourself/myself?
I think it's because the photographer wants to see how he/she looks like while taking a picture.
most DSLRs (except the more recent ones) and all SLRs don't have Live previews and you can only properly compose the picture while looking through the viewfinder.
recent ones (like the newer sony alpha series and the Nikon D90, D5000 and D3000) do feature the live previews, which make composing pictures without wearing the 'DSLR eye-patch' possible.
I have several photos of myself wearing the dslr eye patch, and also some photos of myself just holding the camera like the one immediately above ;)
i dont have a personal preference over which type of photos, they generally convey themselves differently ;)
Hahahaha.. Oh i see. I don't mind people wearing an eye patch on the photo. But if it's for camwhore, I prefer the whole perfect face is shown rather than something is blocking the face. Anyway, sometimes wearing the precious eye patch is a pleasure. I wish i have that moment. LOL.
lol..... if wanna camwhore better pic. Use samsung dual screen compact camera lah LOL
oh.. a trend?
yeah i seen such pose before..
but i think it's still okay la.. haha.. =D
