You should see the look on peoples faces when I tell them I shoot in the RAW! They know I'm both a shooter and a photographer.

I used to, too, but I had to throw so many of them back that I went back to shooting them. . . . .

I've heard people refer to photographing the moon, as shooting the moon. About 30 years ago, this had a different meaning as described by my cousin. It generally took place in the back seat of an auto, with ones pants down, and buttocks pressed up against the side window.
So that was you? Did that sore ever heal up?
:lol:

"Shooting" is a common photographic term, but I'm wondering if using that word has caused problems for any of you.
"I'm going out later to see if I can shoot some dolphins." "I'd like to shoot some of those kids in the playground, but their parents might object."
"I'm going out later to see if I can shoot some dolphins." "I'd like to shoot some of those kids in the playground, but their parents might object."
Canned tuna with 23% pure dolphin tastes better, just sayin.
I've never had a dolphin steak, but the snout makes a great cannon barrel swab for those cannon users that do not have a camera and want to shoot whales. I understand that the blubber has a really strong fishy taste.

Do you know someone who is alive simply because you cannot afford a hit man?

Hi Greg and jerryc41: Great Politically correctness for wording and youtube posting: Years ago my oldest daughter and son-in-law had an indood paint ball field in an old resturaunt inside a mall. Can you picture groups of young men and women walking through a mall all decked out in fatigues, protective gear and carring semi automatic paint ball guns. Talking loudly about who the were going to shoot. Needless to say they got quite a reaction both from the folks in the mall as well as mall security. This was long before 9/11.... Needless to say the players were told to be cautious about what they were saying and doing while walking through the mall to get to the field...Unfortunately no body brought a camera...

I was asked why I was going to Maine and said "To shoot some moose." The person then ask me how many and I replied "Every one I can find." When the look of horror came over her face I realised what she thought I meant. I then quickly added "With a camera!"

I got it. Simply say you are going to photograph some moose. Then again, if you have ever eaten moose, you will also likely want to shoot one.

One could say the same thing about horse meat also, but not even God would help you if you actually "shot" one for the meat.

Nothing better than horse meat jerky and beans on the trail. Do not forget the hardtack and plenty of black coffee.

Just don't use those words in a post office or airport...

Yep, as well as "Take a picture of you." I try to remember to use the more gentle term " May I make a photo of you?"
