Close Disguise Ostrich Taking 1927
EDITORS COMMENTS
A Hilarious Disguise for an Ostrich Photography Session, 1927 Date: 1927 Description: This intriguing photograph captures the moment of an amusing attempt to take a close-up picture of an ostrich. The image features a group of people gathered around an ostrich, with one individual in the foreground wearing a disguise, presumably to try and approach the bird without startling it. The disguise, consisting of a large brown hood and gloves, covers the person's entire head and hands, leaving only their eyes visible. The ostrich, with its distinctive long neck and elegant plumage, stands tall and alert, seemingly aware of the human presence. Its head is turned towards the disguised person, as if assessing the threat. The other people in the background appear to be holding ropes or other tools, possibly to help secure the ostrich or maintain a safe distance. The scene is reminiscent of an artful tableau, with the ostrich as the central figure and the human figures playing their roles in the attempt to capture a close-up photograph. The photograph's black and white tones add to its timeless and classic feel, transporting us back to an era when photography was a more laborious and creative process. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the determination and ingenuity of early photographers in their quest to capture unique and captivating images. It also highlights the playful and adventurous spirit of the people involved, as they donned disguises and employed creative methods to interact with the natural world and document it through their art.
