Photo bombing.

While at the ceremony for the plane crash last thursday, I noticed a plethora of photographers that were not associated with any type of media.
Photography is becoming a problem.
People assume because they have a "professional" camera means they can go wherever, whenever and take photos.
However, this is not true.
It's distracting enough having four or five photographers running around from actual papers, taking photos for their jobs.
Then you add about 15 more photographers jumping into shots and walking in front of people there to remember those lost, and you have utter chaos.
How disrespectful were those who ran around during a moment of silence, or in the middle of someones speech?
Marshall needs to work on keeping better control somehow of only allowing media to be taking photos during ceremonies during events, especially one as important as this one, so it doesn't look like a rodeo.
One of the football players even commented that while they were watching the lifestream their view was obstructed by the mass amount of photographers gathering around the fountain to shoot those placing the roses.
It was a bit out of control. It's sad that people lack enough common sense to realize how inappropriate that was.
