Things don’t always go right when I’m taking pictures, and getting something that really satisfies can be elusive.\u00a0 Love Russia, Hate Homophobia<\/a> seemed to have everything going for it, a colourful protest with plenty of people who were interesting to photograph, obviously showing their emotion over the issue of homophobia in Russia, but although I worked hard at it, nothing seemed quite to gel.<\/p>\n I tried hard, and there are some pictures that almost make it. Some that would be improved by cropping, which suggests I wasn’t framing things as well as usual, though there did seem to be more things than normal that didn’t fit a 3:2 ratio frame. Or perhaps I just didn’t stay there long enough, and was too busy thinking about getting to my next event. <\/p>\n It was an event where many of those taking part were very much aware of their own images, which perhaps makes things harder. Or perhaps I’m just getting too self-critical in my old age, expecting too much. I did a decent job after all. <\/p>\n More about the protest and more images at Love Russia, Hate Homophobia<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/mylondondiary.co.uk\/2013\/09\/03\/20130903-d004.jpg\")
