Winning entry, with a score of:

Contest goal:

Everyone knows how much of a menace the paparazzi is, so lets see what it's like to be them. Go out and take a picture of someone that doesn't want their picture taken. But be careful, everyone also knows what sometimes happens when they go to far.


Status: finished. Check out the winners below!

jerostone: Fine, but since this is a bit risky, will it be OK if it is staged, or does it have to be candit? ( 5 years and 2993 days ago )
locksmagic: Wow I suggested this a looong time ago, never thought it would ever get picked. This should be interesting lol. ( 5 years and 2993 days ago )
Derivatix: @ jerostone: in my oppinion this HAS to be staged, as somebody that doesn't want their picture taken will hardly allow the image to be published. You would need a model release if you enter the image in a contest. And that is rather hard to get when people don't want to be photographed.
Also you would have to be very annoying and photograph somebody over and over again to get a "paparazzi-like" reaction like the one above. Famous people are annoyed immediatly if they see photographers. The ordinary local neighbor or passerby will most likely first be surprised of having their picture taken and react afterwards. If the person reacts upset, you would have THEN to take another picture. Would you dare to do so? I wouldn't. ( 5 years and 2992 days ago )
jerostone: Absolutely right, Derivatix, and it's a nice thing you pointed out for us all these implications. Nevertheless I suppose that either the mods, or locksmagic would have to further elaborate on the of staged-no staged issue. But, as we, Greeks use to say, where there is a will, there is a way, meaning I can always secure my cam on a tripod and shoot myself while pretending to be an extremely irked and annoyed... celebrity at being harassed by ruthless and unscrupulous paparazzi!!!

Contest Moderator: Yes it can be staged BUT it must be "on location" NO STUDIO SHOTS ( 5 years and 2992 days ago )

Paparazzing a close friends might not be as dangerous and scary as capturing someone that unknown to you. This is the proof of "mild" rejection :) (5 years and 2988 days ago)
