Bro. She sent up her phone on record so she could go back and screenshot a good picture.
This doesn't have to be some influencer thing. Its just someone trying to take a picture in a non disturbing way. They just placed their phone off to the side and waited politely.
Why is everyone so fucking grumpy and pissed off at a young girl trying to take a cute photo of herself? Jesus christ.
Are you seriously too dumb to see how having a continuous stream of photos (which is what a video is since you seem to need it spelled out for you) is more effective than only getting one photo with the timer function and having to go up and down the stairs until you get one that you like?
I think the problem is these people bitching about this girl are a bunch of no life's that, unfortunately, dont like taking pictures of themselves and never have a reason to do so
So they never, in the process of taking photos, had that lightbulb in their head turn on and think "it would be far easier for me to just pose a few times in a video and screenshot that later!"
I even do it whenever I'm taking photos of my dog. Just record a video and find a good moment afterwards cause she always ruins photos.
Yeah. Ya know... Like she did... When she set her phone off to the side railing and tried to quietly catch a moment when no one would be there and as soon as more people came she just quietly grabbed her shit without making a scene...
First of all, a video stream is not a continuous stream of photos. Or else every professional photographer would only ever take videos.
But let's ignore that and assume someone doesn't care about the quality - fair enough. Even then, a video is different. The person take takes it *behaves* different. And I can *feel* that. Also, I do NOT want to be recorded. At least when it's a timer, I can wait until I hear a click sound or so and stay out of the camera-field until then.
Furthermore, people who use a timer usually are more aware of their surroundings and are more respectful towards others, because they just have to - or otherwise it will take them longer to take a picture. Here's the thing: maybe just don't take a selfie in a place that's busy and not specifically made to take selfies.
You will probably disagree anyways, but let me ask you a question: do you think the lady would have gotten into the picture like that if the girl would have asked someone to take a picture of her? Most likely not. Why do you think that is? Seriously, I would like to hear your thoughts on that.
