Hello everyone,
This is indeed my first post. I know I'm a toy and everything, and I know that no matter how good of a question I ask that most of the replies will be sarcastic answers meant to demean me. But as an aspiring writer and photographer I am inclined to get writers opinions on the subject.
Being a photographer, I enjoy going out and finding different subjects to capture. Graffiti is a very interesting subject and I enjoy photographing it. So here is my question. Obviously I photograph pieces and whatnot to document them. If I captured a piece regularly (no artistic touch given) first, then put my own photographic spin on it in a separate picture, would you (as the writer) get mad?
what, do you mean photo shopping?

No. Let me explain,
I was reading up on photographing graffiti and I came across someone who said that you should just document it. No other elements in it to make it the photographer's own vision (like blur, or portrait work with pieces as a background, or just capturing it as an artistic photograph). I thought that was quite strange since most photographers' goals are to make every picture their own statement. Did that make sense?

graff is done in public, it's free for anyone to shoot, photoshop, jerk off to.. whatever floats your boat dude. if writers didn't want you to see their shit, there wouldn't be any graff. Do whatever you please with whatever you please, no one can stop you.
As long as you don't claim to be the one who wrote pieces present in your photos, and as long as you don't sell those photos and/or make money out of them (any commercial use of others' works - unless it;s your job to do so, like if you're a journalist or something) no one cares about it.
just know your limits, know the history by educating yourself about this thing you claim to "admire", and don't post THROW-UPS in a TAGS thread
Thanks for the feedback.
Sorry about the throw ups. I saw other people post multiples and got carried away.

well in that sense, yeah knock your self out
on a more serious note tomorrow i'm going to bunnings(hardware store) and racking some paint, if i fill up a chiller bag(one of those cheap ones from coles) and walk out of the drive in place you get the wood you think i'll get stopped, and if i am stopped what should i say?
i'm new to racking paint so don't rip my nuts off, i'm just asking

if you get caught and it's all out in the open, the best thing to do is to be VERY nice and cooperative. own up to what you did and appologize politely. say you'll pay for the stuff and that you realize what you did was wrong and that you promise you won't steal again, and if they're chill enough, they'll just let you go in peace... don't struggle and make things worse by being a dick. and smile in gratitude if you're let go. say thanks also.
and that's how you trick a home free
what if your a broke bastard like, can't afford to pay for the paint and that why your stealing. also i just cut into the foam a little to make a little pouch for markers

Most stores have a policy of not stopping shoplifters. They may ask you to stop, but if you keep going they typically wont stop you. It's not worth the 40 bucks in loss to get hurt. You can typically find out what their policy is online or by talking to employees. They may have hired security out side in a car like at walmart but you can usually get by them. Just try not to look like a scumbag going in and a nervous wreck leaving. If you want to minimize risk you could grab a dollar can and a bunch of whatever else you want and use a self check out just ringing up the dollar can for each can you picked up.
Damn Pete thats way clever, never thoight bout that, I usually pay 2.99 a can of Rusto.
yeah over here a can of fiddly bits is 3.89 a can and it's like water, so you have to pay 7 bucks a can for white knight or export which aren't that bad
Mo-Town bombers PM me
2.99 for rust-o aint bad. here its like 5 bucks.
Ya Co has bomb prices at local hardware. But id still rather pay a dollar for it when I decide to pay lol
No doubt. that's about 2 extra cans for the same price. For me I'd be gettin almost 4 or 5 depending on where I go. I can't get cought up stealing so that's what I do and if they catch me I just say sorry I thought they where the same price and carry on. But it's super unlikely when they are busy. I go to Meijer which is like walmart but better.
well today sucked, i had to go to the school and get my stuff for this year(school starts in a couple of days) and all my mates i bomb with were busy, and i would have been heaps sketchy by myself
