what does /p/ listen too while taking pics?
any special music for different situiations?

i'll start:
i'll be goint out to take some pics of my town and i'm gonna listen to tool (pic very related).
for shooting models i rather like to chat, so no music in general. sometimes massive attack or some downtempo/chill.

I dont listen any music while shooting, unless im shooting at a concert.

I prefer the silence.

Nothing. I prefer to be aware of my surroundings. The music is distracting. It can also scare away some wildlife.

Nothing. Between my camera bag and the neckstrap on my camera, each time I've tried listening to music while taking pictures, my headphones have become annoyingly tangled up in everything.

Depends on the situation. If I'm at home doing some macro, sure I'll throw on some tunes, whatever I've got on Winamp. If I'm doing an event or the like, I have to be aware at all times to a) Get the shot, and b) avoid getting hit by a car. Thus, no music or any other distractions.

Exactly what others have said. No distractions.

isn't photography about capturing the feeling of the moment/ scene as well? fuckin hardcore tool squirrel in the park. Just picturing OP walking around setting up a shot, then full out head banging all of the sudden

Electronic music. No particular subgenre for special situations, but I'll switch between Techno, Trance & House and Gabber, Hardcore and Bouncy Techno according to the atmosphere.

haha yeah, It's still at the point where it's not quite the norm to see people using the hands free. Even in a big city where half the population are crazy and talking to themselves, now another quarter join them, I feel stupid every time I try it, and people just stare.
