I read an article about two years ago. And it became my #1 rule. Never show anybody your bad pictures. If you want people to (think) you are a good photographer. Go through your pictures and throw away the bad ones. Edit your good ones and when done show those pictures. Take 100 pictures and show your family the five good ones Ha Ha Ha

Nope, Bobbee, I'm not the "hijack" sheriff. That'd be Bob Mielke. I'm the "read the prior posts dumbass," sheriff.

And, it's coke, pepsi, RC, big orange or whatever as long as I've got a moonpie.

Then, it's chevy, ford, dodge, anything as long as it'll get me up to 13,000 ft. elevation where the mountain goats are without breaking the bank for gas, like my wimpy lil' ol' foreign pickup that'll barely carry my photo gear, and not just to Wal Mart, Target, Safeway, etc., where you'll find most of those Chevys, Fords, and Dodges sitting in the parking lot, jacked up so they can go over the curb without turning over or bottoming out and impress the gals up and down the street.

Good! ...and, that's my intent, a little laughter! Thanks for getting it, and banana is king. 'bout choked to death one night recently, thought I was getting a banana and picked up a lemon instead. Now, I like lemon in "aid" and "pie" but in a moonpie, it just ain't supposed to happen.

i agree coke in a icy cold glass bottle, for thr rc fans rc in a bottle with a penut in the bottom and a moon pie :-D I have one more #1 rule especialy for this website READ YOUR MANUAL the answer you seek is probably in there. a+w at the drive inn in a frosted mug.

The RC cola with the peanut and moon pie is definitely a southern thing.

Me, I just preferred boiled peanuts. That's a southern specialty too... :)

Those of you from Michigan remember Vernors, don't you? Ginger Ale is just not ginger ale if it isn't from Vernors. It makes a great Boston Cooler. (Vanilla icecream, blended with Vernors.)

Oh yow, and when it's in Texas, it's Big Red 'cept in Waco where Dr. Pepper started. Dr. Pepper and a tube of peanuts or over a lil' ice cream. I love regional flavors and traditions.

YUCK peanuts in soda :(
I thought this was a photography rule thread lol call the cops its been hijacked... hehehehehehehe

SWEET TEA in the south...... period.
Cornbread and pinto beans

OOPS I went back and read the first post.... are moonpies actually what you guys think about when you take photos????

sinatraman Loc: Vero Beach Florida, Earth,alpha quaudrant

penuts in a bottle of coke or rc cola is a south Georgia thang. Also a southern thing adding coca cola to a choclate cake recipe. It sounds weird but is sooo good. Cracker Barrel every so often will have it.

another of my final rules (sort of like the 5 books that make up the hitchickers guide to the galaxy TRIOLOGY)

after taking your shot don't stop looking at your subjecct. find the shot within the shot. repeat

As we speak, I'm unloading a plate of pintos and cornbread. "You can take the boy out of the country..."

That new profile pic is good. Makes you look like a happy young lady who just experienced an important photographic experience.

Definitely sweet tea for me, and I like pinto beans and rice with hot buttered corn bread. I may have been born in Michigan, but my heart is in SC. I used to love Pop Eye's spicy fried chicken and pinto beans with rice and buttered corn bread.

Number one rule with photography... ALWAYS take your sweet heart if she (in my particular case) likes going out with her camera too. Make sure you get her an equally nice if not better camera if you want peace in your house :)
