Now I hate everyone.... Bunch of idiots. And I can't take a damn picture because of them. Anyway, have the instrument panel from a Peugeot 308.

Reminds of the time when I went to the Macau Auto Show a few years ago. I was just clambering into the back of an M6, seeing how comfortable it was, when a model decided to perch herself on the bonnet and everyone started taking photos of her. I had to shrink myself into the back seat (no easy feat) to avoid being seen.

Seriously? I would have been pulling stupid faces and everything. Make the art department crack out photoshop and work overtime.

Well the French certainly rubbed off on you quickly! Just be like Martin Brundle, push/shove/interrupt/shinkick your way through the throng

Asian media would've been hella pissed. Anyway, I helped the media a lot, I was only one with the guts and ability to open the bonnet of nearly every single car on display. I just crept up, popped the bonnet and sidled away...

You mean those guys who want to stand in front of every vehicle that is being displayed and get a photo taken by a friend?

I'm also French ^^ I understand that I don't have a HUGE camera with a HUGE lens, but rather a small mirrorless, but seriously, how people don't notice you wheen you're kneeling trying to get a shot ?
And don't get me started on parents bringing their kids in a stroller! WHY? You know the place is going to be packed, why would you bring a small kid in there, he won't see anything, won't enjoy anything.
As a result I haven't been able to see everything, the hall in which VW group was was packed as hell, and you couldn't go anywhere. I didn't take all the picture I wanted, and I was mostly using my 50mm prime lens so a bit hard to take picture with people walking in front of you. Took around 100 pictures I think.

Yes. When the car is some unsual stuff, I can understand. But when it's a regular Opel Corsa, I have a little more trouble....

I'm sorry to hear that you're French.... I'm joking! But that sounds like it sucks. I love a prime lens for car photography though, great choice. Will the show quieten down later so you can get some better shots?

I would think that their photo album from the show would look pretty silly.

I wanted to stay later, but I was with a friend, and we were in there since opening, we were hungry, it didn't look like it was going to dye down, so we left
