I think that there is virtue in patience.
That tripod guy has patience to setup the tripod and camera and carefully compose the shot for perfection because this might be his way to have a perfect Sunday.
Why do you want to deny this because somebody does not have enough patience to wait a little?
- handoflixue 7y agoChildren generally only take up the space for a few seconds, so being patient with them is easy. Someone who is taking their time setting up a tripod is blocking the space for significantly longer. If you want to close off a space for a while so that you can carefully compose the perfect shot, either do it somewhere remote or consult with the owners to arrange an appropriate time.
- eveningcoffee 7y agoYou seem to prioritize parents instant gratification. The fact that you may service large volume of them does not make it more right automatically. I do not agree that photographing a child is certainly faster. First you have to position your child and only your child in front of the object. This means that at the same time other parents and also tripod guys and girls can't take the picture. So now instead of letting tripod users to take the picture and move on, they have to endlessly wait for the moment where no parent is blocking the view. Naturally these two groups are in conflict and it is up to event organizers to realize this and organize two different kind of events.
