If the multicolor fearsome face decor of Masai people
of Mozambique is too primitive a kind we could see these kind of tactics in modern
day cricket as well.
In a land
of wilderness of Mozambique such kind of mask has a purpose.... to ward off evil spirits and to scar wild animals. These innovative
tactics repeated here in cricket by tempering the face, the bowlers at the cricket
ground.
look at a Sri-Lankan bowler (face
painted in white) and his colleague with a wild hair decor, the Lions (Sri Lankans) capitalising on strategy of fear psychosis.
The technique also effective to defy the latest face-detection of Digital cameras, or a Third umpire decision
relying totally on a camera replay, to make a decision.
(these
tactics for a moment (at least) is allowed, at the pitch along with bouncers that has become a accepted norms,of today's cricket until
unless some one would try to experiment with much more scaring face mask. By the time a new code of conduct will be imposed
and the above technique would also become perilous like the earlier tricks, like..ball tempering, chucking, coating with Vaseline
etc.
In modern day cricket,...apart from net
practice, especially the bowlers should take this advice for a regular to visit
to a beauty parlor for such a facial treatment
or for a more wilder things with interesting names. But here I simply call it asA treatment of face and hair temper.
Gone are days of gentleman games of Kapil Dev, Imran Khan or Malcommarshall,I very much I doubt whether they simply know such things.
The
lions knew it has worked on their way in their one day innings against the Tigers (The India ...the biggest of the cat family) and quite naturally it should, against the humble kiwis and kangaroos. Later on I come to realise ,my prediction has gone wrong –instead
it went to Aussie's way probably they possessed even more magical tools.
Then along the street
of the street Carnival in California or in the HOLI festival of India, these
(décor) were done but in a jubilant mood. Would you then expect a technique called face-detection inbuilt in a modern camera
to assist focusing would work properly?
'Face-detection’ is one among a
handful of new-mantras along with other older ones like ‘Red eye correction’
repeatedly chanted at the Mega photographic events like photo-kina or PMA shows mainly as a business strategy.
Underneath this sumptuous technique, meant for the mystic rituals of focusing
that heavily relies on weak-logics that get easily perturbed as explained above ,which also has lesser scope for creative functionality.
‘Red Eye’ of in-camera correction
>> In
India we are very scared of ‘Red Eye’ but the malignant is only responsive to an Antibiotic lotion, than a photographic
soft ware, because it is a viral disease, called ‘Madras eye’ which makes the eye turn Red in Summer, Fortunately
I had never got one, either virally or in photography, so should I really care for it?
Here it is only, Just a little exaggeration
to show how this modern technique is fallible, but mainly a fun is intended.
...But it relates to an unfortunate
Mr. Nobody ,a photographer,whose latest Digital Camera that got funked to do ‘face detection’ as he tries to photograph
those people, on an assignment at remote location. But you indistinctly know why? More
about these materials of his 'Dreams yet to come true Camera' , you will find
later in the site (which will be periodically updated).
But wait...a..a minute
In a world where there are more important matters than cricket or fun is to you and
me,and in a punishing real-life situation, it is more appropriate for me to narrow down here to deal with my technique and
issues related to photography, apart from, anticipation of some future prospect
for me.
I presume
,A real trend setter, is technically a one that should assist you with a in-camera function for creativity. Incidentally one such is, a technique of mine (I would prefer to call it as Flash-selection. Logically
I am suppose to be more knowledgeable on this subject as the creator) hence I wish to take little more liberty to talk more authoritatively here.
Flash-selection>>>is not meant or sounds to be an espionage tool, like the face-detection is.
