When you take a photo when traveling, how do you pose? Do you

Peace sign and slightly closed eyes.

And the photo is taken with your ipad?

Are you talking about taking a selfie? I don't. I hate selfies. I take pictures of what I am there to see, and I'm not there to see myself.

I do not need to pose because I am behind the camera

You better be a teenage jap girl, otherwise that is fucking pathetic

What do you think you will care about more down the line? Pictures of you with people you met or your solo facial expressions?

Or those pictures of the eiffel tower you can find on google search?

No, i am talking about getting someone to take a picture of me standing in front of something amazing like a monument or landmark.

When I look back at my pictures, if I'm not in the picture or people I know/met/saw on my trip aren't in the picture it has to be EXTREMELY interesting or it elicits the same feeling as looking up a random picture of that place on the internet. People make normal things interesting, personal, and unique

The memories that the pictures I take will remind me of down the line. Every jackoff that takes a selfie does a shit job because their own damned head takes up half of the picture.

>Or those pictures of the eiffel tower you can find on google search?

The pictures of the Eiffel tower I took because it'll remind me of standing there with the crowds, the smells and sounds of the city, the walk to get to that point.

And watching them run off with your camera. I'd rather find that view of the monument that I want to remember and taking that picture of it.

So take a picture of the person. I don't mind a picture or two that I show up in from a trip. I see too damn many people that half or more of their pictures are of them with the camera at arm's length, their yellowing teeth contrasted with their shitty sunglasses, their giant head obscuring a monument or view.

The picture with that person is better because I'm in the picture, but if I can't be in the picture, then just the other person is second best.

Why do you have to be in the picture at all? How does that improve the picture or the memory? Will you really forget that you went somewhere if you don't see yourself in the picture?

This mindset is baffling to me. Explain, in as much detail as you can, how you being in frame adds anything at all to a photo of a monument or landmark.

Two shit stains have appeared, so don't even try to have a serious discussion.

I don't really take pictures of myself since I know how I look. I find the places I am in more interesting. I also shoot with a manual focus camera mostly so hitting the focus on a selfie is hard as shit

This is the only picture of myself I took on my last trip

I'm not the other guy, but I think it adds a certain feel of nostalgia for when you look at the photos say a year later and actually see you in the middle of your memories. It's more physical, or personal, than photos you'd find on Google anyway. I don't take so much pictures of myself when I travel though, so I'm not defeinding the whole "selfie-mindset", but I know that looking back at pictures you took with friends at special locations can be quite moving. Sometimes it's not so much about seeing yourself next to a monument, than seeing people you care for next to you, next to a monument.

why even travel when you can google image the things you wanna see. cause technically you can then say "ive seen the great wall of china"

>>1060531
Why take a picture of anything. You can just look the pictures up on google and if you became friends with the person in your travels you can just look at random pictures on their profile right

Its the same feeling as being with your friend in that picture at the place you thought was important enough to take a picture. Right?
