Disclaimer: I am not an advocate for the Occupy movement nor do I support the movement. I just take pictures of anything & everything and happened to be in Union Square during the protest.
Ok ,so this was my first attempt to photograph a street protest with a DSLR and not using the Auto mode. My difficulties:
1.People are moving and you are moving too, everyone is pushing you to a side since you are trying to take a photo from the front and therefore blocking the way. Stability is a dream.
2.You need to switch to shutter speed mode as you want to freeze the motions. Then, as a matter of fact, everything turns underexposed.
3.You have to give up your favorite ISO100 and use a higher ISO : (
4.If you use Auto focus, you’ll be slow. If you focus manually, you’ll never get it right.
5.You need to do your best not to get emotional and just record the event. I find it the hardest part!
Well, “education” is what I need I guess ;)
