Photographers who Steal Souls
There is a belief amongst certian aboriginal poeples in the third world that in having ones photograph taken - one loses their soul If that were true- how many souls have you taken in your time ? Dec 09 06 01:12 pm Link Cute. I have a large inventory. My portfolio of souls continues to leap forward. Life is sweet. Dec 09 06 01:15 pm Link I fall in "like" every shoot and a soul I share, not take. The aboriginees knew no better than to shoot and eat a little meat for survival. The photographer; capture and release.

Dec 09 06 01:21 pm Link Hmmmm... Hard to know because some of those that I shot over the years didn't have soul to begin with.

Dec 09 06 01:29 pm Link every photographer leaves a little of him/herself in every picture, ideally no more or less than the amount the photographer takes from anyone else.

Life is grand! Dec 09 06 01:35 pm Link Garry k wrote: Finally! An explanation as to why so many have poor webcam self portrait photos in their profiles. Dec 09 06 01:40 pm Link When a model flakes on me... I feel like I lose a piece of my soul ... Dec 09 06 01:46 pm Link I have been a soul collector for so long I lost count years ago! Is collecting souls anything like the Karma Credit Club? Dec 09 06 01:47 pm Link Does Ebay have a ban on the sell of celebrity souls on Ebay? I think I just figured out a way to strike it rich. Running a special today of Paul McCartneys (quick before Heather sucks out the rest of it in court) and Madonnas (made only of the finest balsa wood,red ribbons,and toxic paint chips-lol! Dec 09 06 02:02 pm Link Who told you about us? Dec 09 06 02:12 pm Link Every soul can only be stolen once, So you would need to be the first photographer to capture a persons likeness. That being the case.... I would suspect that every one has their sould stolen by thier proud parents within a day of being born. Dec 09 06 02:34 pm Link Chris Macan wrote: Ohh those evil parents !

Little bastards get their souls sucked out before they even know they have one. Maybe that's why they scream so much and stink so bad.

Dec 09 06 03:53 pm Link i have the power of 200 girls Dec 14 06 08:57 am Link Dec 14 06 09:04 am Link It is the essence of illusion that I capture and decline to release, saving the world around us from the misguided tours of pretence. Dec 14 06 09:07 am Link Does video count? if so it would be in the thousands. 23 years of news and lots of interviews, sports and crowdshots. Now how do I harness that to live forever LOL Dec 14 06 09:10 am Link Jack North wrote: Sounds like an engine rating. Dec 14 06 09:12 am Link I must have getting on for a million... when shooting at big music festivals I nearly always do a few crowd shots, getting in most of the 50,000 people watching the main stage. Dec 14 06 10:02 am Link I'm thinking that those video cameras in the nurseries of hospitals could be the real soul stealers Dec 14 06 08:37 pm Link Hmmm.... this theory would explain politicians. So photographers steal souls, and models steal hearts. It's a match made in heaven. Dec 14 06 08:41 pm Link good point! Dec 14 06 09:13 pm Link Not just them, but the Native Americans too.
