Meta-photos
Hi all,
I'd like to introduce you to a new concept that I have invented, hopefully (though not very probably) before anyone else. It's called Meta-photography, and basically involves the following;
- finding a touristy area where people are taking photos
- sneaking up behind randomly chosen target from among aforementioned tourists
- taking extremely close-up photos of them taking photos
- getting away with the above unnoticed
- and last but not least, publishing the resultant meta-photos, hopefully to critical acclaim and public adoration (well, a man can dream, can't he?)
It's great fun. I highly recommend you try it sometime. I thought up the idea while I was doing a few hours of sightseeing in Paris, on my way back from Technival (see earlier post). But i'm sure it would work anywhere.
These are my first three meta-photos (and just possibly the first three in human history as well)
A Photo of someone taking a photo
Another photo of someone taking a photo
You'd think i'd be bored of this by now, but no!

I think your emergency CPR worked. I just hope it wasn't mouth to mouth!
And yes, you are. Check your email over the next few days :-)
