When your family album consists of:
1/ A great landscape, including the church where you were married
2/ Several honeymoon landscapes
3/ A picture of a pregnant woman (not your wife) because she had great bone structure
4/ A picture of the detail on the babies crib.
5/ A picture of the great ceiling where your Son graduated
6/ Another landscape containing the church where your Daughter was married. |

You hate spending $100 at the grocery store, but don't mind spending it on yet another CF card.

(happened to me today!) |
Follow on to this story - you know you're obsessed when. . .
after the story above, you are shooting down on the beach and get a call on your cell phone from your wife. She is stuck on a deserted road with the sun going down and a flat tire. Before rushing off to help her (back up the muddy trail), you click off a few more shots, one of which is golden!
Here's the shot:
And by the time I got to her and changed the flat in darkness and rain, I was in no mood to shoot any moments of that part of the day! Add to that, the spare was nearly flat, so I drove home (5 miles) at 15 mph! |

when you finally make a pact with yourself that states:
No photographs of any sunset unless they are extraordinary!
How do you determine THAT??? |

when you make your friends be part of shots that require 100 takes, which you think is completely normal and think they feel the same.

I might be a moldy oldy, but even I know what facebook is. Only difference here is my daughter tells ME to edit her shots before she post them there! |

-when you start reorganising kitchen cupboards and hubby gets home from work to find you sitting in the middle of the kitchen floor, surrounded by tupperware and photographing a box of straws... and the kitchen doesn't get finished until the next day.

When you forget to eat and realize you're very hungry after you finally finished your shot.
When you dressed up funny and put some weird make-up on for a photo, immediately runs ( really love to do that, lol ) to the computer to take look and edit them and your boyfriend comes home after a couple of hours, laughs at you and you realize you still have to change your outfit and wash off the make-up.

When your favorite method of procrastinating is running outside to take photos, after all, it's justifiable.
When the light gets magic, all other needs disappear.
When stock image prep turns into stretching one's wings photoshopping and you emerge hours later, blinking
When watching a movie where the lighting is so fantastic, the visuals are almost all you can remember afterwards ("Girl With A Pearl Earring" comes to mine)
Picking movies to see based on the DP (director of photography)
Thank god my models work for food. Oops, gotta go, cool post-storm light! |

Not that I would know anything about anyone doing that sort of thing. No. Not me. ;) |
but did you take pics of the arm?
