Tips for Capturing the Perfect Transit Fail Photo

  • Lighting is key: Even in the dimly lit confines of a subway car, try to find a decent light source.
  • Focus on the details: Capture the absurdity of the situation – a funny sign, a bizarre outfit, or a particularly disgruntled passenger.
  • Embrace the chaos: Don't be afraid to document the messiness of public transit.
  • Be respectful: While humor is encouraged, avoid taking photos that are disrespectful or invade someone's privacy.
