A ill-placed finger over the camera lens has ruined many a good photograph.
Erik Kessels from communications agency KesselsKramer searched for old photographs that have “giant fingers” making cameo appearances, and curated them in a chapter of his new book, In Almost Every Picture 13.
The featured photos in Kessels’ book include old black-and-white family portraits, and modern colorized images that showed its subjects being covered up by these pesky fingers.
Humor aside, his book shows us how these stray fingers, typically associated with amateur photography, must have annoyed many photographers, especially those from the analog days when they could not so easily retake a ruined shot.
Take a look at a selection of photos from the book, which is available for purchase at €25.00 here.
