Married's only! Hey folks, Here you are, "Shop & Shoot!" This is the way to get out for a solid day of comfortable picture taking without spouce carrying on about making a "photo widow - widower" out of them all the time. "Hey honey how'd you like to go shopping, you know, a nice day at the Mall?" Immediately they are caught off guard! In my case she'd think I'd finally flipped out completely instead of my usual partial. :) However, the truth is you want to have the day wandering about quietly looking for exicting images, without spouce whinng in background, "How many pictures of that flower, whatever, are you going to take? They all look the same anyway!" Some of you folks know exactly what I mean, Right? :) So here's the plan, "Hey honey how about we do a "SHOP & SHOOT? You shop and I'll shoot," Man their eyes light up on cue to "SHOP!" And away you go! A happy carefree day of nothing on your mind than happy snapping the life and times before you. Key phrasing, use..... "SHOP" first! After that she wont hear another word! :) You, mentally free, enjoy your Leica shooting in the breeze. It's wonderful, trust me it works! :) ted >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Ted, Great minds (laughs) think alike :) I spent this sunday morning with my wife at a flower market. Several streets in town full of colors and people. I'm back with nice pictures (I hope), and my wife with a lovely brown-and-yellow orchid. What more could you ask for?
