Aah. I married well, my wife is strong willed and independent. Also not a bad photographer, so she just goes her own way, or comes along as she pleases, but we don't have that issue.

Plus today is our wedding annniversary.

Mine is not taking my time, but I have to catch up to the other half after each shot, so not much time is spent on the setup. I guess if I can ever slow down, it will be a piece of cake.


I can definitely relate to that...

I love taking pictures of wurst, which is worse than your worst!

True! I tried some shots of weisswurst a while back and found that my shots were worse than any other shots I had taken of any wurst, indeed the worst shots I had ever taken of wurst or whatever.

1) Not having a camera with me most/all the time. (Yeah, the phone camera is good, but not really good enough - nor wide, nor long, etc. etc.)
2) Using a tripod. (The monopod is always with me, but I almost always forget the tripod)


Yep... #1 is my problem, sad to say. I always tell myself I’m going to next time :/

Saw this on Facebook, thought it would make for interesting discussion here.

What is your worse Photographic Habit?

Mine is too many wide angle landscape shots. I have to force myself to use longer focal lengths to get more detail shots.

Hurrying my shots......🚀

At my time of life, I hope I have ironed out all my “worst habit’s”!

I agree with you to some extent but when taking landscapes I try to emulate the field of vision of the human eye which is about 180 degrees.
I use two M43 prime lenses for this, a 20mm and a 25mm (= 40mm and 50mm) and usually the 20mm is the better choice in my case.
