erm, why do you think they are creepy?
Posted by jeff, 14:05, 9th February 2003:
 
ok, lets take a vote on how creepy this shot is shall we?
I'm sorry, maybe its just me but i find the idea of candid photography a little unnerving...

All I see is two people showing how much they love each other. To me, the idea of posed photography is so unnatural as to be boring.

Its so voyeuristic though, especially using a telephoto lens. Theres a difference between knowing your photo is being taken and posing for photos and I personally find those photos completely intrusive and slightly unsettling to look at (have you ever read 'The collector' by John Fowles?). In fact I'd appreciate it if you could remove the ones of me from your site please.

Haven't read 'The Collector' but have studied parts of it. I think the level of voyeurism depends on one's intent and association with the individuals involved. If I was just another random in the pub then I'd agree with everything you are saying.

Pictures are fun and I enjoy seeing what you guys look like. It gives me a face with the name.

Some of the best pictures of me where taken without me knowing.
