Ten Signs you are Obsessed with Photography

First, I'm NOT OBSESSED but rather fascinated and curious about it as I do take pictures almost every single day and I'm still under the learning curve. But others do live and breathe with it making them obviously obsessed right? 

Anyway here are Ten Signs you are Obsessed with Photography plus some swabeng thoughts on each of them. I just saw this on facebook and I hope you do like reading it. XD


Are you Obsessed???


1. You can actually tell what kind of camera someone is using from over 30 feet away. - Its hard for me to tell since I don't have a 20-20 vision anymore unless I know you personally for sometime as well as your camera. XD

2. You have tried to claim “Photoshop” as a medical expense because it’s good therapy. - Uhm I haven't consider that yet. XD

3. When planning a vacation, your main concern is finding a hotel that offers WiFi so you’ll be able to upload your photos to the web, daily. - For me my main concern is what to shoot at when I'm on a different location. Editing and uploading for the web would be later =P.

4. You own more than one camera bag even though you only have one camera. - Well, I plan to buy a smaller camera bag soon.

5. You refer to cleaning up after dinner as “post-processing the kitchen.” - I don't know about that. =P

6. You can’t remember the date of your best friend’s birthday, but you know all the specs of your camera and lenses by heart. - Well, its tru at times XD

7. When attending a wedding, you are more interested in what the photographer is doing than what the bride and groom are doing. - True. I do observe their movements and how they do it so I could try them when I become a wedding photographer someday XD

8. When you see a photo of a model, you find yourself more interested in what lighting was used and how much processing may have been done. - True at times. But nothing beats natural light XD.

9. You understand that 22 is actually smaller than 5.6 - Very true. XD

10. When gazing upon a beautiful landscape you think to yourself, “That’s lovely, but it could use just a bit more saturation!” - True at times XD
Am I Obsessed now? XD

  1. I can only relate to #3 and #7.

    #3 - Bull's eye! Also for checking in and Twitter :)) [only, since my phone doesn't have Instagram, only ThumbaCam]

    #7 - good thing I didn't do that. Though I was tasked to be the photographer among us friends, so I was extra attentive to the ceremony :P

  8. I guess i am one of the very few bloggers who doesn't own a dslr. I rely on my ever dependable point-and-shoot camera :)But I always ask if the hotel has wifi to immediately upload raw photos.

  12. I'm not a photography addict, but I have nothing against those who are :). To each his own, I guess. As long as one's fascination with photography doesn't interfere with his social interactions or with his health, I think it's ok :)

  20. I'm also obsessed of having several kinds of camera before. I just "broke" down for non-maintenance. I look taking pictures for pleasure, for experiment.
