This was an interesting shot to capture, this electric post was in the middle divider of a
somewhat busy intersection, so I had to walk down the divider while oncoming car drove by thinking
I was probably a looney with a camera.
However after taking this shot, maybe I start to understand what a photographer is. Because people
have asked if I was a photographer because I carry my camera bag around or I have some camera
gears, but I've alwyas said "No I'm not a photographer, I just shoot/capture a lot of images".
But thinking about it now, a photographer, once s/he has an idea of what he wants to capture, he
will capture the best possible image by doing everything he can to ensure that happens, be it the
time of day, maybe it's at dawn, dusk that offers the best lighting, thus waking up at 5am in the
morning or delaying your dinner meal or maybe it's running across a busy intersection, but it's
doing whatever it takes to know that you've done a correct creative exposure!
So I guess it all boils down to, just how hardcore are you?
