You're somewhat troubled by the fact that you don't know how to calculate the shutter speed of your eyes when you blink.
When performing daily duties, you adjust the angle of your head or change your line of vision for a more interesting composition.
You look at a desk full of tax returns and wonder how you could photograph the stack.
You've gotten a ticket for an illegal u-turn - to go back for THE shot.
The sign "no flash photography" means nothing to you and makes you laugh, because YOU don't need a flash.
You no longer need a purse because your lipgloss and ID fit just fine in your camera bag.
You try to go "full manual" with your point&shoot or phone camera.
While wearing polarizing sunglasses, you rotate your head left and right to assess what impact your circular polarizing filter might have on a potential shot.
The camera in your hand is more comfortable than the tennis shoes on your feet.
I don't think I'm a photographer... I don't try to buy the most up-to-date camera model, and my old one is languishing in the dark somewhere. Guilt, guilt...
Save that of the days starting with the letter 'Z'.
Then, I am golden.
"I wouldn't have posted or even really looked at it, if not encouraged by Les (in an off-topic thread) to be slightly more forthcoming with the posts."
Give me too much credit in the above.. the natural talent (eye for composition, et al) is and always has been there. And I always.. enjoy looking at your work, Tootles, digital or otherwise.
So.. yeah.. you'll definitely get that from me, where your art is concerned ... 'more, please'. :o)
I don't even remember that, LOL! More posts would definitely be a good idea.
Thanks for the encouragement -- have been sllllowwwwly working on a couple of things, though not photography. (Races to a snail, leaps into the saddle, and waits for it to surge forward... like in Space Chimps).
9. 30,000 family photos neatly categorized in Lightroom. Zero photos of you.
8. When at a car dealership, you translate the price of a car in your head to "Six 5D Mark IIs." Your last power bill cost two monopods.
7. Touchdown plays are somewhat distracting because you can see the white glass on the sidelines
6. You are frequently greeted with "What are you taking a picture of?!?" instead of "hello."
5. You'd rather buy the shirt that more closely resembles 18% gray
4. Your carry-on is heavier than your checked bags
3. You describe disgusting old dilapidated barns as "beautiful"
2. Number of lenses > Pairs of shoes you own
1. You actually believe a wizard could fit in your pocket
