Week 04 Photo Challenge-You In a Camera Store


In this picture, I am pretending to be shopping for a Light Meter in a local Camera Store. The picture was taken using the 5mp camera on my trusty HTC MyTouch cell phone. I took the picture so you could both see the product and packaging in my hands and me looking at the product at the same time to help with the illusion of me shopping for the light meter. The cell phone was propped at the edge of the counter with a couple of books and I just had someone walk help me out by pushing the center button which triggers the phone to take a photograph.

I originally wanted to go to Casey’s Camera on Tropicana in Las Vegas, NV. I was going to go in and ask the owner, Wayne, who is there Tuesday thru Thursday, if I could take a photo in his store for an assignment for school. I wanted to take the camera and attach it to a table top tripod and angle the camera in an upward position so it would catch my visage peering into the display case and examining some product that has caught my attention as a possible purchase. I felt this would be a unique way of experiencing the other aspect of the sale, from the point of view of the product.
