To raise your camera when something happens is to usually make it scramble, have it already raised, be already shooting. The shot you need to get will be just another shot. You'd rather be home watching television but you have to get these shots for the damn editor. I think tape makes your camara blend in. But don't think you are. They all know you are there shooting. All eyes are on you. If you don't have anything to be or feel guilty about there is no reason to feel guilty. You have a mission! Mark Rabiner
