Pizza Pixels? Now THAT's funny. I suffered a long hard battle with 50 of those. I finally banished them from my camera.

You people all need jobs! Great topic and comments. Glad I don't have these issues, though.

At one time, most of us did, don't worry, your turn's coming. ;-)

OK, I taught a small lighting class last night for a small club. Our model (kid from one of those modeling schools) failed to show up. I actually stepped in and posed as the model for the hands on portion.

When looking at all the portraits, I realized that there is something seriously wrong with digital cameras these days. When my photo was taken with film, I looked much younger, less fat, and had hair. Something in these sensors make me look terrible!

I know what you mean. Something definitely wrong with the sensors. Look at my profile picture. I'm actually bald.

That's what happens with age. I always show pictures or my younger years and sometimes extremely out of focus shots do the trick, and then there's always Photoshop. :) :) :) :cry: :cry: :cry:

My wife and I were too broke (all our money went to our kids) when we were younger and better looking to have portraits done. Now we're too old.

Nanoseconds, perhaps?

Lol... I think it's called aging. Some do it gracefully and some don't.


But remember, we are NOT old, we are just chronologically gifted!

Well spoken. When I survived a cancer operation and life-threatening complications more than 20 years ago, I realized what a gift life is. We EARNED every wrinkle, pound, and follicle loss. But life itself is a gift.

I agree, one morning while shaving I noticed this old man looking at me from the mirror and for a moment that startled me until the message sank in.


I had a similar problem except in the mornings I noticed that although getting older I didn't look bad for my age. The thing that spooks me is later in the day when I walk past a mirror is to see the reflection of some strange guy stalking me. Gives me the heebigeebies.

Right! And it's not that our memories are going, it's just that young people have nothing worth forgetting!

I think it has something to do with the amount of mega pixels. The higher the count the worse we look lol

Aging? I refuse! It's discriminatory. I will argue for legislation against that.
