You Know You're a Photographer When...


We fired up the barbeque for the first time this year. Ok I say "we" loosely. Josh was the one out there fighting smoke in his eyes, while I sat inside. On the couch. A cold Mike's in hand, and the laptop on my lap (go figure--they don't call it a laptop for nothin'!) Anyway, he got the burgers going, then threw open the door. As he ran (literally) upstairs, I could trace his steps through the ceiling, down the hall, into the office, and back downstairs again.

Me: "What are you doing?"

Josh: "Getting the Canon!"

Duh. Should have known.

So there you go. You know you're a photographer when you grab the camera in a frenzy to get a shot of a burger on the grill. Mmmm.. I think I know what I'm having for lunch.

Now you fill in the blank. Leave a comment with "You know you're a photographer when ____________." The best one gets a $10 gift certificate to Eastside Java! (Deadline is this Sunday night, April 6.)

Ah man now I'm hungry...um...can I have a burger?

Chris said...

oh...and I think Josh needs a new grill top. That thing is looking a little rough around the edges, literally.

Heather! Those bags are so cute! You just opened up a whole new world for me! My husband isn't going to like you very much... hehe

How funny. I did similar when we were out camping recently. I'm sitting there looking at this huge fire and thinking how cool the coals look and wondering if I can get a good shot of some of them without melting my pocket camera. Well for the challenge...lets see...(mind you this is gonna be cheezy).

You know your a photographer when...Everything you do is snapped, cropped and uploaded.
