Do you take your camera everywhere??     posted on 17th of august, 2007

I just wondered today if I am weird for carrying my camera everywhere I go...even to the grocery store?

I was inspired to write this today because I was out driving around and suddenly saw a several wild turkeys crossing the road. Despite quick parking and my best sneaky walking they all got away from me anyway!! But at least I felt good having a camera at hand.

So how about anyone out there...do you carry yours and what exciting image has been your reward??

Here is an image of a lucky encounter I had with a box turtle.

I take my camera as much as possible.
People think i am weird when they see me with my camera all the time

only the 1.3 megapixel one in my cell phone :)

Interesting to hear peoples views on this, thanks. I should add "no turtles were injured in the taking of image". In fact she got a free ride to the other side of the road after her photo shoot ;o)

No I don't. Meaning I don't bring it to and fro when going to work. I do tend to have some type of camera with me when doing something enjoyable. Unlike Photojay I never bring it to bed or the bathroom... well sometimes to the bathroom. I hope you moved that turtle out of the road!

I take my camera everywhere I go. People think I am weird and so does my husband but I have no regrets about it. I have gotten many images that I would have missed if I had not had my camera with me.

I agree Photojay about some camera free days. I normally make myself not take the camera on certain trips/events and then I get to use my eyes for a change. But just going around locally I usually grab my car keys and then the camera.

The chamber I take with myself frequently, but not always it is possible to make a fine photo. And it happens on the contrary. The most interesting when has not grasped the chamber from a house.

i take my camera everywhere. My wife gets mad when she rolls over onto it in the middle of the night and she has told me repeatedly that I am going to get in trouble if I keep taking it to the bathroom with me. I do schedule days where I am just spending time with my family and NO camera. On those days, I take my wife's canon p&s with us to capture the fun and be more spontanious.

I do. But sometimes I miss shooting deliberately, when I want to enjoy the moment myself. Hoverer quite often I fall in shooting even when I hadn't been going to do so :)
Comment by Limeyrunner on August 20, 2007
Thanks for all your replies. I wish you many lucky AND planned shots!

I do try bringing my camera everywhere, however, I have three little children with me at all times which doesn't help when I want to stop the car quickly and run down a hill to get the perfect shot ;)
Comment by Misscanon on August 18, 2007
Yes I do and when I don't I always regret it :)
Comment by Kenneystudios on August 17, 2007
I try to take my camera as much as possible, but it's not always practical. I'm looking into purchasing a more compact model right now -- something I can throw in my bag to carry with me everywhere I go. :) It seems like the most opportune moments are the ones when I don't have my camera!
Comment by Petarneychev on August 17, 2007
I don't. :) I take my camera only if I know I'll be shooting an event or environment - nature, buildings, etc. In general I don't like trying to capture those unique moments because I miss out on enjoying it. Yes, I know that limits my photo collection somehow, but at the same time I'm happy that I've got good memories. Most of the time I plan my shooting.

I try to carry my camera with me as much as possible as well. You really never know when you will find something worth capturing. Unfortunately, with this habit I find that my cameras take quite a beating with me taking them everywhere I go! Here's an example of something that I found and luckily had my camera along!

Hello and thanks for visiting this little corner of Dreamstime. As you can see most of my photos are taken in the great outdoors because that is where I like to be! I try to take the best picture that I possibly can, being that I just don't have time for Photoshop wizardry (I hardly even have time for breakfast!) I just give my pictures a little workover and let you designers do your thing. I would love to see what you do with my images.

Thanks for looking (and especially downloading). Please leave me a comment if you have time.

Enjoy your day ;o)
