Dumbest Photograph you ever took?

[GURUving]

I have many, as I love taking pictures of everything all the time. My faithful camera is always by my side.

I have taken many pictures of rocks. Not special looking rocks, necessarily, just rocks.

Dumb pictures with my ex, though not because of her. I look hilarious in my 80's haircut trying to be serious. Bring back the 80's!

:) So................

1. A late twentieth century water faucet.

But it WAS in Arles.

2. My dumbest picture got me an in-school suspension.

Back when I was in Fifth grade I took a photo that ended up in an in-school suspension. (also known as death by boredom) Inspired by an episode of The Simpsons, I took the 110 camera that I had recieved for Christmas the year before, and took a picture of my ass. When I got the photos back, I took the picture with me and passed it around my bus, proud of myself. Unfortunatley, my former babysitter who was in high school at the time, got her hands on the picture, and turned it in to the principal. Long sotry short, I got yelled at by the principal, got an in-school suspension, and was really in for it when I got home.

3. Your babysitter knew what your ass looked like?

I wish I had babysitters like that. I had evil sisters.

Everybody on the bus was saying that It was my picture.

4. Dumbest one I took ...

was pictures of some neat clouds last summer. I totally forgot about the "code orange". I got pulled off to the side by a local cop with an military helicopter in range(?).

When I got home I zoomed (500%)on it and I saw the tops of a rail road train and an prison tower.

7. An aside to your prison story-

last year I was in New Jersey recording historic structures and landscapes (part of my job) when I got pulled by angry cops. Little did I know that a large water treatment facility was in the viewshed of my photos. I was wearing an army jacket and had my compass and GPS unit so I was assumed to be a terrorist. Or maybe it was my South Carolina plates.

Pretty touchy in Jersey.

9. Hate to say this

If I had darker skin and a foreign (desert) accent I probably woudn't be here to tell about it.

8. I took a picture of Anne Robinson on TV

Remember "The Weakest Link?"

At the end of the show, Anne would say, "Join us next time on 'The Weakest Link.'" Then she would smirk, and say, "goodbye."

One time, I captured the smirk on a camera. ;-)

When I was a kid I took pictures of everything, as a result there is a shitload of shitty pics in my closet.

13. Pictures of my finger

When I first starting taking photos my finger always got in the way - and sometimes still does.
