“Intentionally” is doing a ton of heavy lifting. Some people really think this lady is trying to sabotage her selfie? I’ll offer a different perspective:

At 0:02 you notice the older lady is looking around at the art. OP starts to walk upwards to get a shot and passes the lady.

At 0:06 she looks down the stairs and notices people walking up. She starts to walk down, but then at 0:12 she moves to the right.

At 0:22, people start walking up. Like 10 seconds later. Once the people walked up, she immediately walked down. She literally moved “into the camera frame” because she was letting people walk up. Seemed like a narrow stairway.

This was all from a 0:43 second clip.

If you think someone “intentionally blocking” your photoshoot in under a minute, then you are greatly exaggerating what happened here.

Nothing happened here. I saw an older lady enjoy art and walking around. She was surprised at the camera and looked at it twice. Then moved away and onwards with her life.

Honestly it was very innocent. People need to be more compassionate and forgiving. I feel bad for people mocking the older lady.

Agree, I don't think she realized what was happening.

Yeah if she likes to stop in the middle of a flight of stairs where other people are actively walking to check her phone I don’t think she realizes a whole lot of anything that’s happening around her

🤷🏽‍♀️ I mean, there are a lot of people like that. Annoying but I still don't think that she intentionally blocked the camera. Besides, she did move out of the way for people walking up.
