What is one to do? The best they can. For Catherine, I was able to move some branches away a bit. But I couldn't hold a reflector, the bush limbs, and depress the camera button all at the same time. So, I did the best I could and that's that.

For Thomas, I was barely able to get my camera inside the bush let alone set up a decent shot. Sometimes, a photo like this is all you can do, short of cutting down the bush.
I completely understand your troubles! My town's old cemetery is almost completely surrounded by a line of bushes, kind of framing it. The problem, though, is that a number of the stones are facing right into the line of bushes! How is anyone supposed to see, let alone photograph, those stones without chopping down the town's neatly-trimmed hedges?
ReplyDelete*and by facing, I mean the side with information is right against the wall of hedges. There is zero space between the words and organic wall.
