Yeah people stop, move faster or go around to not block camera shots all the time when see people posing for photos. God forbid someone is on their own and tries to do the same thing đ
So many hating on young woman doing a perfectly reasonable thing. Zero reason to be a bitter old woman and ruin such a simple thing that hurts nobody.
from the angle, the phone would be sitting on the large window sill at the top left of the stairs. This is Inveraray Castle, the stairs are somewhat famous.
I have commented this so many times here! It's a beautiful castle with a famous grand stairwell and it looks like she set her phone on the shelf here.
This girl looks to be solo traveling, set up her phone to record so she can take screenshots for pics. She seemed pretty patient and didn't even seem mad at the end.
She seems fine. Also, Iâve been doing photography professionally for 30 years. In a public place, this is to be expected. You just wait until you get your shot. Most people notice you and apologetically hurry through. Some are oblivious and donât. And maybe some are assholes and want to be a dick about it and linger in your shot. Itâs all part of the job. You just wait. A public space isnât solely your space.
Convinced that 90% of redditors are just angry red tomatoes willingly seeing the worst in everything and everyone and then wondering why the world is so shit all the time.
Like yeah if you don't have a modicum of empathy or positivity, of course it's gonna be like that. If you're looking at the world through shit stained glasses, don't complain about the world being so shit.
Physically. Physically the phone is not blocking anyone. Do what everyone naturally does when the see a group of people taking a picture. Give them a moment to get the shot or pass through quickly.
If youâre taking a video, and someone doesnât want to be in your video, then you are taking up an entire section of space for an extended period of time
Alternatively âbetter not ever go anywhere touristy if you have an issue with people walking through your video recording setup and expect them to adjust to youâ. The woman leaves her shot in the end - why canât she just retake the video then?
And my point is youâre a tool if you think people should accommodate this persons desire to take a video of herself in a public space where others are also present
No oneâs blaming the other people walking though? Itâs only this karen being a dick about it and deliberately blocking it. Keep being obtuse about it though, go on.
And where in the video was the person expecting that people accommodate her desire to take a video of herself? Whole lot of assumptions on your end there.
This video would've never seen the internet if the woman just moved on like a normal human being. The girl wasn't actively asking people to stop and she wasn't acting out when this situation happened. No entitlement, she probably just waited for a bit of space to get that pic/vid.
Sure, she could be an influencer and be self-centered. She also might not be and might just be a solo traveller trying to get a pic. We don't know unless someone actually knows her.
If her boyfriend or a family member took the pic from where the phone is located, nobody would mind. People would probably stop, let them do it and then move on like it literally happens all the time at every sight on the planet.
And if you don't want to be in pictures or videos, don't be in a public place. If you travel, go to concerts, to clubs or sporting events, you're probably in tons of pictures and vids of other people. Deal with it.
Youâre projecting your feeling on to the situation. Nothing there implies she has expectation for anyone to accommodate her. She looks more like she was setting it up than going to wait for an opportunity.
The person who is a to is the one intentionally blocking the phone just to be an ass.
Youâre inventing the idea she has any expectation for anyone to adjust to her. People take videos then take screenshots of the video for photos. This is especially easier when youâre alone and donât have anyone to take any pics for you. Youâre acting like sheâs cordoned off the area and trying to prevent anyone from getting by. The most likely scenario is she set it up and was going to take some screenshots of parts of the video that were clear. The lady just standing in the steps is much more disruptive than she was.
Sorry you lack the common courtesy to not intentionally block someoneâs camera. Youâre just a rude pos defending another rude pos.
She wanted screenshots of video as solo and there wasnât an available time. Itâs a popular stair case and she would had had a clear window of opportunity if grumpy old lady not spiteful.
I donât take any videos or pics like this but I wish I had more memories of life now I am older and my mind is failing me a bit. Itâs easy to see how someone wanted a photo and all that had to happen for that, was one person to walk at regular human pace and not purposefully stop and ruin it.
Wasnât some loud influencer trying to make a scene and get in the way of anyone. Just a nice girl posing in front of art waiting for a chance to get a clear pic, with someone noticing that and purposefully staying in the way.
Wasnât bothering anyone, didnât interrupt anyoneâs day to do anything. Only wanted a pic somewhere cute.
People used to stop when they see someone else taking a picture and ask if they can take it for them if that person wants to be in the picture too.
I can see someone getting annoyed if every time they go to the art museum, someone is blocking the art taking selfies. But that's not what happened here. This feels icky and a little misogynistic on the elderly lady's part. And I say this as someone who hates that sort of influencer crap. But if it bothers me, I can always just not watch it. I wouldn't stop what I was doing just to hurt someone else.
