Top Ten Reasons You Might Be a Photographer10. You have nightmares of people using the “P mode” we won’t even talk about the “green mode.” That’s just too scary.

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 II’s.” 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” (via Lori Anderson)

2. Number of lenses > Pairs of shoes you own (Carsten Deutschmann)

1. You actually believe a wizard could fit in your pocket

No it's not - it's comic relief and there is some truth mingled in there - I think you appreciate humor more than you let on, a bit dry maybe but it is there somewhere. :thumbup:

Evandr, you're one of the rare people who can look at my profile pic and see that there is uproarious laughter going on behind that somber wry facade. Very intuitive. Congratulations and praise be for the variety of smiley faces.
And yes, any time something hits home like that, it has to be amusing. It is very good and hits home.

I have had people ask me when I don't have it, where is your camera, first thing they say to me, becuase my family says it is connected to my body like a tattoo. They call me grandmarotzy.

Hey, you have a good looking beard and there is almost always a humorous side to anybody who keeps his beard up, besides, your posts, although filled with an obviously talented eye, are laden with the same classic dry humor that my father had so I can appreciate it.
