At the Archaeological Museum of Vergina near Thessaloniki, Greece, quite a few years ago, we were advised that we were not allowed to take photos. I could not help myself when viewing the ancient Greek tombstones, and quickly took a photo. Unaware that the strap of my camera was in the photo, I was not able to take another one, since the staff person reprimanded me. It is an amazing museum, such treasures and displayed magnificently. Thanks for your comments, always appreciated.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

Vicki, for me, the only plausible reason that photography is not allowed in a museum is that when flash is used, the color of the exhibited objects can be adversely affected. Attendants often receive a general guideline that they follow closely.
Too bad the strap on your camera was a bummer. Now you leave us with an even more intriguing recording than it already would have been in de normal condition, 😁 .

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
