A picture's worth...
>> 16 March 2010
I never have a camera when I need one...not that I don't carry one. I always have a digital camera and my cell phone in my purse but I never can get it out fast enough.
All day long I think...how can I even come close to describing this?
Images like...
The 37 year old man walking down the street in his kelly green teenage mutant ninja turtles sweatshirt. It's not ironic, dude. Not when you already look like you live in your parent's basement.
The 20 something woman walking her 150 pound dog. She's wearing a flannel sweatshirt, micro-mini (and I do mean micro) patterned stockings, full makeup, and 4" fuck me shoes. The dichotomy between her buy me packaging and the back the F' up before my dog eats your face off tickles me.
A crane taking off in the field at dusk.
The newest Smokey the Bear ad. His arms crossed like a rapper- the motto Get your Smokey On. Oh, Smokey- do you have any idea the graffiti you' re asking for?
The 300 pound woman walking through campus with her cotton candy floss prom dress complete with fairy wings and a crown.
I can't make this crap up. I'm not that creative.
A camera, a camera- my soul for a camera.

We have that Smokey the Bear ad at some of the bus stops in Providence! The first day it was up my boyfriend actually did take a pic of it and send it to me. He was like..."I think this ad might have missed the mark..."
I know exactly what you mean! I carry my little point and shoot in my purse at all times, but I can never just reach in and pull it out when I need it. There is much searching and then getting it out of the case and turned on and then telling my husband to turn around and drive right back by I have just GOT to get a picture of that.
Yeah. More to capturing that picture than meets the eye. ;-)
please start carrying your camera in hand at ALL times!
