Weekly Photography Challenge Thread (see first post rules and then the poll at top before entering)

Fixeddddd

 

Need to dust off my gear. Never knew this thread existed.

 

Pet Peeve: When my sister in law keeps saying "Your camera is amazing". Recently my cousin saw me with my camera and asked if I was a photographer (ok, stupid question), I said yes, my sister in law said something about how good my pictures were, and my cousin said, "So you are pretty good, huh?" and the SIL said, "It's his camera, it's really amazing"....I said, "Well, it's a little of both".

Does she not see how insulting she is being? And trust me, I can show a great number of bad photos that also came out of this amazing camera.

Just hand her the camera and ask her to take an amazing photo of you, or anything for that matter. Should shut her up pretty quickly.

 

Lol who cares. I tell people it’s the camera doing the work and I’m just pressing the button. People who know enough are the ones who understand it’s a joint effort between you and the canera, but 90% you lol.

 

Did someone say fire?

 

Everybody is lookin fer the easy button

 

Unfortunately no, they don’t realize it. My friends and family took a while to understand it and hard head finally got when I handed him the camera and said “If you think the camera does all the work, here give it a go.” His photos were garbage and I used the race car analogy for him, i.e. it might be a great piece of equipment, but you have to know to use it.

 

I really don’t like “auto pro” photogs. If you can’t do it manually, quit your bragging and shut your trap.

 

I was just practicing guitar and I thought, if my sister in law saw me she would probably say "That guitar is amazing", lol

 

Take a shitty pic of her, and tell her it’s the subject that makes it easy, not the camera.

 

Good im not the only one who does this. Also go with the welp i took a shit ton of pics one of em has to be good

 

Lol exactly. The only times I’m really picky with pictures are for work or astrophotography.

 

My sister really loves it when she gets volunteered by another family member to photograph someone/something. Especially when they assume the photos are going to be free/cheap. Of course by “love” I mean despise.

Most people don’t understand the work that goes into good photos. Particularly if it’s a long session with tons of pictures.

 

Keeping it simple this week...

 

Probably won't gave another chance in the hours I have left, so this'll have to do.
