Saturday Fun (星期六趣味)

These days, it's difficult to go anywhere remotely interesting without  bumping into many others with an I-phone, a tablet, automatic cameras of all sizes and colors with or without zoom functions and those carrying impressive looking black rectangular bodies with lenses which look like mini canons and tripods which have no eyes during the processes of being mounted or dismantled and all having more or less the same ideas as those in your mind. They all imagine themselves "photographers"!   But what exactly is a "photographer"? I looked at the internet for some suggestions. The following are some of the words I found:


YOU ARE A PHOTOGRAPHER IF....

(1) You can’t post a picture without some slight retouching! Even from your iPhone!( Nakesha Morgan)  


(2) When your three year old is taking your picture with your iphone and says “no mom, move over here. I don’t like that background.”  ( Leslie Sarten )

(3) You are up at 2 am up, wired because you only get bursts of editing energy during the wee hours of the morning! (Brynne Owen)  

(4) When your walking or driving somewhere and you take a picture with your hands- CLICK! Boom- look at that backlighting or sun flare! (Julie Wagner)  

(5) When you look at your friends’ profile pictures and they’re such bad quality/badly photographed you can’t stand it. (Kristin Page)  

(6) When you “schedule” a photo shoot with your kids “just because” and they know exactly how to pose without being asked. (Jayme Peters) 

(7) When you cringe just a little whenever you see a kit lens on a DSLR. (Lyra Repplinger)  

(8) When you drive by a location like a junkyard and think “how cool would it be to shoot there”! or how about when you and your friends talk about shooting families, babies, teens, sports teams and no one has to spend any jail time. (Alana Banner)

(9) When you can’t flip through a Magazine without analyzing lighting. (Amanda Williams) 

(10) When you are at a wedding watching the photographer to see what they are doing and what lenses they are using over watching the wedding couple. (Mary Beth Cooper)  

(11) When you buy your children’s clothes based on what would look good in a photo shoot and your children start suckering you  with, ” oh Mom, won’t this look great in a photo!” in the cart it goes! (Amanda Capps )

(12) When you can’t watch an action show or pickers show without looking for potential photo props!  ( Mindy Franich)  

(13) When your 6 year old says mama that looks like a good spot for pictures! – (Carrie Jaquay ) 

(14) You secretly hope the neighborhood doesn’t get cleaned up because you’ll loose some of your favorite locations! (Leah Remillét) 


(15) It begins to dawn on you that having a great camera makes you no better a photographer than having a grand piano makes you a greater pianist.

The sun is out again. Have fun clicking !
