It's like people have none sense of why they go places.
A few years back, I did a lantern-lit tour of Mammoth Cave. I've done them in the past, and the ambiance, sound, smell, and flicker of firelight gives a very close yet mysterious feeling to the tour. This time though, as soon as we got into the cave, half the dipshits on the tour had their harsh white cellphone flashlights going everywhere, completely ruining the experience that they (and other people) had just fucking paid for. They really need to have a "movie theater" cellphone policy for those kinds of tours.
Music concert - everyone recording with their phone out.
Fireworks display - everyone recording with their phone out.
Bride comes down the aisle - everyone recording with their phone out.
It's just pointless. You ruin your own experience of the event because you're watching it on a screen instead of experiencing it directly, and you ruin other people's experience too.
And the wedding one I've seen far too many times.
What do you think the official wedding photographer is there for? When the bride and groom watch their wedding video back they want to see a room of their happy family and friends, but instead they'll get a video with rows of people staring at their own little rectangles and pointing them at the bride as she comes down the aisle.
Do yourself a favour and live in the moment sometimes, please.
Phone cameras are a godsend when I need to remember.
They are a curse when I want to remember.
I try to always make a point when recording to have the phone down as much as I can manage, so I can actually watch the event with my special eyes.
I went to see the leatherback sea turtles nesting a few years ago. They guide themselves by the light of the full moon and we were explicitly told not to use flash photography, as it disorients the turtles. As I’m sure will not surprise you, as the turtle ladies crawled up onto the beach, about 100 blinding flashes went off right in their faces.
Oh fuck that makes me mad. If I was running that operation, I'd have those people removed from the beach immediately. And probably fined, depending on the situation.
Or better yet, ban people from bringing cameras with flashes.
pretty hard when they're phones, but i get it. it's almost worth investing in some cheap digitals that you can destroy the flashes and give to everyone to take the photos and then email them their copies. and by almost i mean i wish i had the money i'd do it right now.
