Am I the only one who gets self consious when Photographing in busy places ?
I know I shouldnt be this way but mainly its when Im at places like a bird of prey centre and Im there with my £130 sigma 70-300mm lens and Im around people with £5,000 lenses that look like rocket launchers.Where I have been taking photos properly for only about a year and half and they all look really professional with there 500mm's and monopods I sometimes feel like some people might be thinking "look at that little lens" and "why is he taking pics from that position when the light is coming from there" etc etc.
For example last time I was at the bird place alot of the photographers were set up in one place that I knew would be good for pics but I didnt have the guts to go over there also because they were so professional looking.
And even when I get my big lens Im going to be thinking "cant go over there because what if one of them recognises that I might be using it wrong "
I know this probably rediculous and its all in my silly head but does anyone ever get like this or did you when you firts started ?
