A Farmer’s Opinion. Near Salida, Colorado, 2013
OK, after posting the above image I think it is time to pour on a hefty helping of photography humor. Here ya go…!
–How many Photoshop experts does it take to screw in a light bulb? Just one–plus 99 others to show you a different way of doing it.
–One blurry picture is a mistake. Twenty blurry pictures is a style. (Actually, there could be a spark of wisdom in this one.)
–What is the best way to make money in photography? Sell all your gear!
–If you saw a person drowning in the ocean and you had to choose between saving him or taking a picture, what aperture, shutter speed and ISO would you use?
–What is the difference between a photographer and a large Dominos pizza? The pizza can feed a family of four.
–Did you hear about the photographer who bought a Labrador puppy and named him Kodak? Now she has a Kodak lab!
–How do you make a small fortune in photography? Start with a large one!
A Canon ad: “I gaze at the sunset with the woman I love and I think, ‘f/8 at 1/250’.”
And a couple of great links…
This one is a great parody of all those inane photography forum discussions about equipment: Lens Rentals Hammer Forum.
And this link goes to samples of a wonderful comic strip about the travails and undulations of a duck photographer–that is, a duck who just happens to be a photographer not so different from most of us: What the Duck. You’ll bust a gut and snort up a booger reading through these. For a short interview with Aaron Johnson, the comic’s creator, click HERE. Once you have seen this comic, you’ll surely want the book for that special photographer friend (or more likely, for yourself–admit it!)…so, you can order it HERE.
Maybe all this will help you forget that lots of people seem to hate lots of other people these days.
