Capa Was Wrong...ish


Loyalist Militiaman at the Moment of Death, Cerro Muriano (AKA Robert Capa) - September 5 1936

Probably the MOST famous war photographer Robert Capa once said
"If your photos aren't good enough, you aren't close enough."
I don't disagree with this statement entirely, however when I go to see a band play and there are three photographers in the front all taking tightly cropped photos of the lead singer posturing it makes me wonder if there isn't perhaps a better way. A way that doesn't draw others away from the moment, a way that gets across more of the surroundings and more of the experience instead of just pure cropped singing emotion. Yes there is another way. If your band photos are the same as everyone elses, you're too close!
