<p>Now <strong><em>this</em> </strong> is a philosophy of photography treasure. Thanks very much Monika.</p>

<p>Well worth a visit. scroll through to the end, the effect builds.</p>

<p><em>"When you photograph in color, it shouldn't look black and white"</em></p>

<p>damn, I still got a lot to learn. Thanks Monika</p>

<p>#79: Try to avoid blog type photo sites with endless vertical orientation that takes 30 minutes to load.</p>

<p>The nug about proper sausage photography is something I can use today! Timely!</p>

<p>Monika, where were you when I needed you? If I would have had this available, I wouldn't have needed to spend all that money on my photography classes.</p>

<p>Mark</p>

<p>That's great. I like how they're not in any order that I can tell. Very funny and there are tons of great reminders there.</p>

<p>My fave, #58, I need to remember that one (it's better not to photograph if you are drunk and in a fight):<br>

<p>At first I thought this might be another one of those pedantic writings about how everything has to conform to specific rules in order to be "right". More rules, just what we needed on the day before Independence Day in the U.S. I was pleasantly surprised to find I was wrong.</p>

<p>Thanks for posting this Monika. I thought it was very creatively done, I enjoyed it.</p>

 

<p>number 8 is confusing. when they panned the automobile it changed shape! AND it squished into a hatchback...<br>

also number 23 looked much better from the back.</p>

 

<p>Yes I agree - I will only photography sausage at an angle. <br>

and I may break rule 58 and take photographs when drunk.</p>

<p>Just as funny are the responses from all the humor impaired indivduals who took the rules seriously. Also liked the response of one poster who insisted that his photos are actually better when he keeps the lens cap on.</p>
