Recognise this look?

I was reading a photo book on Victorian Scotland and came across this picture http://canmore.rcahms.gov.uk/en/details/1164847/.

In the bottom right there are two Victorian gentleman giving the photographer a wtf look which immediately resonated with me 140 years later and the same look is still given.

Yep, seen that look before.

That would be a good shot to try and replicate, possibly slightly more traffic about now though.

I think barring the 1st of January that would be a pretty hard shot to replicate now, its hideously busy but the more I think about it the less I can work out why! You could probably grab the shot between traffic sequences but I'd not like to be setting up a tripod!!

Well they knew about photography as they kept still.

Well you should try it, maybe very early in the morning..........I love these now and then shots, some more e.g.s though more modern but with a Xmas theme http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/pic...st-and-Present-In-pictures.html?frame=3144834
