Eventually, as you progress with your photography, a signature will emerge.

It's the distinguishing mark that sets your work apart from others.

Your signature occurs in three stages:

Basic: The photos you take

Intermediate: The photos you keep

Advanced: The photos you show

Knowing your signature guides you through all three.

Hecklers can ruin a presentation. They distract the speaker and they upset the mood that the speaker wants to create.

Your response to a heckler depends upon many things, such as frequency & type of heckling, size of the audience, and the audience's reaction.

It's also complicated because if you try to counterattack (e.g., insult the heckler), the audience will leave you. This happens because people expect leaders to demonstrate exceptional levels of courtesy, control, and restraint.

At the same time, you must stop the heckler. The audience expects you to fix problems, such as maintaining order during your talk. So, here are some options, in order of increasing severity.

1) Make the person's comment part of your talk or use it as a transition to your next point. If possible, use humor. This may discourage more remarks.

2) If the heckler continues with silly nonsense, tell the audience, "I'm sure some of you have great ideas about this topic. And I'd like you to save them for after I finish."

3) If the heckler is stating complaints or disagreements, then tell the audience, "I'm sure some of you have other views on this. Please save them for after I finish. I'd welcome the opportunity to talk about them later."

4) Stop speaking, go to the heckler, and say privately, "Your remarks are making it hard for me to concentrate (or upsetting people in the audience). I want you to stop. Will you do that?" Then go back onstage and continue.

Much success,

Steve Kaye

Next week, on July 19, I'll show photos that I've taken at the Fullerton Arboretum.

This presentation represents many hundreds of hours spent taking photos. In addition, I've spent at least a month selecting photos, organizing photos, and planning stories to support the photos.

Now, I just bought an Epson PowerLite 1775W Multimedia Projector.

I did this because I want my photos to look as bright and beautiful as possible.

The Point: A lot of effort goes into excellence.

Much success,

Steve Kaye
