tonight, waiting for the band to come on stage, i have a talk for the first time with a photographer i’ve seen a couple of times before at other concerts.<\/p>\n

him : – …so, you shoot with film, really ?
\nme : – yeah, well, i’ve got a small digital camera when i’m too broke, but otherwise, i prefer traditionnal. i don’t have the money to buy a new digital camera anyway…
\n– and your magazine allows it ? cuz me, i can’t. they don’t want to pay for the costs…
\n– oh, but mine doesn’t…
\n– so you pay it all ???
\n– well, yeah…but what i’m paid covers the expenses and i can make a small benefit, but yeah, every time i press the button, i’m aware how much it costs, so i can’t shoot a lot like you…
\n– and how many rolls you make ?
\n– huh, dunno, like a couple for two bands, so i have to learn to concentrate a lot and all to make good stuff…but man, i still make so many mistakes, it drives me crazy, like…i’m so disappointed when i have only ten good pictures in a roll..
\n– …
\n– what ? oh, huh, yeah, it isn’t much eh, like…huh, i still make so many stupid mistakes you wouldn’t believe it…still a lot to learn…i always screw up the good moments.
\n– huh..it’s not what i meant…like…me i’m thrilled when i’ve got ten good pictures outta the hundred i take…
\n– oh…huh…i meant…huh, ten pics worth looking at, you know…
\n– sure…that’s what i meant…<\/p>\n

(…)<\/p>\n

– and you shoot it all with your 50 mm lens ?
\n– huh…yeah…but only in small halls, otherwise i have another lousy lens for close-ups…
\n– …
\n– i used to be so ashamed of my poor equipment, i mean compared to others, you know…
\n– i meant…it really takes some balls to shoot just with a 50 mm…
\n– oh…huh…it’s just that i don’t have money to buy anything else…
\n– so how do you do when you can’t frame ? huh..i suppose you just have to find another way, eh ?
\n– well…yeah…i suppose i have…
\n
\nnow where does this bitter-sweet taste on my tongue comes from ?<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
