Un/Taken ep. 3 Dennis Sewberath Misser

Are you ready for Un/Taken episode 3? Want to read what you don't get to see?

This topic is about the photo you did not take. If you haven’t seen the first two episode, read the story of Oliver Parish or Rikard Landberg.

I’ve asked the Amsterdam based street photographer Dennis Sewberath Misser about his photos, taken and untaken.

Here we go.

Untaken

Which photo was untaken and why did you not take it?

When you do street photography you can get very close to people when you offer help. I saw these two ladies struggling to put down a red carpet during a little windstorm. To help them I offered to sit on the carpet. In the meantime, I secretly tried to make photos from them. But afterwards it turned out that I had the snap focus distance incorrectly on my Ricoh GR. Too bad because it was fun trying to get the red carpet right. Anyway, unfortunately I didn't made the photo but helped someone and had fun.
