Papparazi Bahrania
Having lunch earlier on, I quickly took this shot of Steve Job, founder of Apple sitting on the table next to us. I had a good mind to go up to him and tell him I dont think the ipod is gona last 2 years.
And it really is him, as verified by this description in an article I found online:
Everyone knows Parisians are snobs. So it probably shouldn't have come as a surprise that an unshaven, middle-aged American, speaking English and dressed in cuffed jeans, sneakers, and a worn black T-shirt, was rudely turned away from the bar at a lavish fete inside Paris's Musee d'Orsay on September 16, 2003.
Except that the man was Steven P. Jobs, the cofounder and chief executive of Apple Computer Inc.
Ok Ok, big deal...sorry, i just wanted to prove to myself that it is useful carrying your camera everywhere, shame I didn't have it when I bumped into Madonna, Hugh Grant, and D-list like Jordan, Rebecca Loos and a host of arab celebs. This week the sequel to Basic Instinct is being filmed in my uni, wohooo, i'll keep an eye out for Sharon Stone... i really think i have a budding future in the paparazzi...there is a gem of a photo i'm hiding of an arab popstar in a charity concert whose brief appearance on stage exposed more than just a bad voice.. now where do i go to sell this photo?

LOL, girl is there a place that buys photos of the backs of famous people? And I thought you were just taking up a new hobby.
u've got a point... had i been a pro i would have pretended to go to the toilet and coming out of the toilet and facing him directly taken a quick snap full frontal... oh well..
Hi,Bahrainia,coming here via Al's blog...nice post,this one..And,yes,I wish u'd taken a frontal pic of the Apple,err,the founder of Apple,I mean.:)
He claims he wears blue jeans, black turtlenecks and New Balance sneakers every day because he doesn't like to waste time thinking what to wear every morning.
he is a nerd...u can just imagine his wardrobes...a wardrobe with black t-shirts of every shade, ranging from dark wornout grey to saturated black and a wardrobe of jeans of all shades.. i tried eavesdropping on the conversation with the big antennas I have hidden under my headscarf but the place was too crowded and noisy...
personally i was more interested in the table next to his with 5 lebanese women who looked like they've just stepped out of Desperate Housewives film set...
people-watching is such a fun activity
Parisians snob? Nah... we're just different, or didn't you know that Paris reflects Venus, and thus reflects... the Beauty of Hu ;-)
Great post..Well you lucky to get a shot of someone tto be famouse..I wish I get that chance
