Maybe you did not shoot enough of them. I'm sure there are several
around for whom shooting would be too good. Michael in Norwich
I sued mine when I shot politicians when I was as young as I would
still like to be.

John Palcewski - Impasse
When I was little I had an invisible friend named Jack. I always
wondered what happened to him? This can’t be him, as my Jack knew that
only one great love in life wasn’t enough. I hope Jack finds happiness
with his iPhone at some point. He seems to whip it out at the most
inopportune moments.
Art Faul - Red GTI, Copenhagen
I stand corrected. A reader here wrote to tell me that was one of my
GTI’s, right there under the mirror housing. Cropped out of this shot
is the VW bus with some graffiti - Fisse - on its side in silver. You
either know what i is, or you don’t.
Jim Snarski - Dharma Cat
My meditating cat sits next to me with his eyes slitted thinking about
his favorite subject - himself. I suspect your Dharma cat is the same,
and yes, they all live in the moment. I suspect he is not planning on
where he will eat or even what or how much he will eat, like my cat,
I’m sure he is not planning to have pizza with a cold brew for dinner.
Bob McCulloch - JFK Getting Ready
I’m sure this shot would look pretty incredible if shot on a Nex 7
(and a tripod) with one o those Zeiss lenses, but here it looks
peaceful and at rest before it heads over to Fantasy Island.
My favorite tripod for shots like this is:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/30592-REG/Leica_14100_Table_Tripod
.html
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/29953-REG/Leica_14110_Large_Ball_A
nd_Socket.html
The reason is that it can be assembled and have a small camera on it
(not necessarily a Leica) and you can angle the legs to prop the feet
against your chest while leaning on a railing or wall and kill most of
the dreaded 'camera shake' or 'button blur’ which adversely affects
shots like this one. And when you’re done, you can disassemble the
little tripod, put the legs in your pants pocket and the ball head in
your breast pocket if you happen to be wearing a suit. I sued mine when
I shot politicians when I was as young as I would still like to be.
