The use of a camera is similar to that of a knife. You can use it to peel potatoes, or carve a flute. ~ E. Kahlmeyer

    That'll be one of those pictures forever immortalized in zeros and ones in some forgotten folder on their hard-drive. I can just here them now... "Ah.... another picture"?

    I do like the perspective of being behind the shooter so see what you saw as well as them. thumb.gif

    I find myself going for this shot myself sometimes--and probably for the reasons M38A1 stated. It's the typical bland group shot that will soon be forgotten and I find myself drawn to capturing "the capture".

    What I really like other then the dull expressions (which always cracks me up) but also your conversion and all that texture.

    I really like this one, Patti. The expressions on the faces of the subjects are priceless and the background adds interest. I agree with Liz about the conversion and texture. Very nice.

    Their serious faces cracked me up. Are they bored, tired of touring Scottish castles or is it a cultural thing?

    It's wouldn't be a cultural thing. I think they're simply knackered.

    My wife (in the Booze Business) has been to many of those castles, in France and Sweden as well. To bad she doesn't take pictures worth a damn.. because she would have gotten some awesome shots!

    All the booze in the world, and neither of us really drink.

    I know that feeling. I'd had enough of Scottish castles by then as well. :D
