Thread Name: Dealing with photographers
Subject: RE: Dealing with photographers
I play for morris and there are some photographers we regularly see at festivals and dance outs. They are respectful, friendly, seek permission for individual shots and from the sides if not previously known to them. They learn how the dances go so that they can get the best shots without being intrusive. They also remember to take photos of the musicians!

A number of years ago another photographer (ie not one I have described above) decided to walk along in front of the musicians and stick his camera under the nose of each musician in turn, whislt the dance was in progress.

The second word I uttered was off!
