No Posed Photography


Recommended Posts

We know what a high 5 is Crazy ;).  The discussion is if you thought because a high 5 is not 'posed' it wouldn't count but it does.  Posed is just a phrase, it essentially means 'a photo with you and the guest at the table.' as opposed to you taking a picture of them whilst you are queueing waiting to get to the front, which is allowed, unless the sign says 'no photograph, in which case it's no photography at all.

I daresay they wouldn't allow a "High 5" selfie as that would be a posed photo, CrazyHorses. ;) 

But things can change on the day. :smile:

Me meant selfie and photographs are a no-no, not to ask for "high five selfie", just the movement of one, me really should have checked what I was writing at the time, my bad.

I think Crazy missed a full stop after High Five, so to answer your question Crazy, most guests are happy to shake hands so can't imagine they'd have a problem with a high five (as long as you don't go in too hard). Some however prefer not to shake for hygiene reasons (I believe Will Wheaton doesn't do contact) so I wouldn't have thought they'd High Five.

You can always ask the guest at the table, the worst that will happen is they say no.

I don't blame the many guests who won't handshake, sadly there are still many individuals who take basic personal hygiene for granted.   I am not saying this applies to you but at every event I've ever been to there are probably 30-40% of male attendees who still don't wash their hands after using the toilets.   Disgusting behaviour but they don't seem bothered.

I've rarely had a handshake refused, again most guests will be upfront about it.   Several years ago Eric Roberts was fist bumping everyone and I have had a couple of people high five without prompting, so go ahead and ask.

The general rule I do for shaking hands with guests is to see if people in front of me in the queue are doing so. If they aren't then I won't either. That way I won't be embarrassed if they refuse when it's my turn to greet them!

Oh so you're the guy I've seen standing in the bogs with a clipboard and clicker.

I totally agree with you there. Personal hygiene can be practically non existent with some people these days.
