This message is for the exclusive club of 4 or 5 cameltoe hunters out there who actually go out and gather new material - the public voyeured toe. I am interested in starting a discussion concerning techniques for photographing public candid cameltoes. I’d like to hear from some of the masters on this subject.
I have a “decent” digital camera. My issue is this: how does one position oneself at a good angle and capture the cameltoe without being caught? My Canon takes awesome pictures, but it a big bulky thing. It is hard not to be obvious… What cameras do you prefer?
Do you sit in one place at some distance and use a telephoto lens? Do you pretend to be adjusting your camera at waist height while secretly snapping pictures? Do you sling the camera over your shoulder and point the camera in the general direction and trigger the shutter, hoping for the best? Do you hide the camera under a jacket or in a backpack with only the lens protruding? Do you work in a team and use a “ruse” to divert attention from the photographer? (I saw this as an m.o. on the old ybacs site) I have gone out , camera in hand trying to get photos. Although I have seen some awesome toe, I have little to show for my efforts. My shots end up blurry, out of focus or without actually capturing the toe. It’s hard to get a frontal shot without the woman or her boyfriend catching you. Shooting asses is child’s play. But shooting a quality cameltoe voyeur picture is a whole different story. It is a very difficult thing to do!
