Blind shooting

This is a discussion on Blind shooting within the Animals (mammals, birds, insects etc.) forums, part of the Show your photo (Color) - Landscape & Nature (flowers, mountains, storms etc.) category; I've been practicing aiming my camera at scenes WITHOUT looking in the viewfinder. I'd like to get good at this ...

    Default Blind shooting

    I've been practicing aiming my camera at scenes WITHOUT looking in the viewfinder. I'd like to get good at this because I think it can make for better spontaneous street photography. (maybe one day I'll buy one of those attachments)

    I took this shot in old Montreal by lowering the camera to knee level and choosing what i thought was a good angle. I think this one worked. It's still a snap (there's a poll in front of the driver's face) and I have not done anything to this except levels.... it's just to illustrate that it can be done with loads of practice.
