I've been lusting after this fancypants point and shoot camera that apparently gets good photos in low light. But it's really difficult for me to justify the purchase when I already have a good enough point and shoot, and also ms cruft has a fancypants DSLR that we never use for anything because it's enormous.

So I'm going to try to take cool pictures with the camera I already have, and maybe that will make me grow more fond of it.

This thread is for posting pictures you took of stuff. They don't have to be good pictures. In my case, they're going to be attempts to take good pictures, with the understanding that I'm really only doing the "tourist snapshots" branch of photography.

This is a photo thread so don't feel obligated to thumbnail your pictures.

If anybody cares, my camera is a Kodak PixPro FZ43. It looks like this:

Neon sign ms cruft got my dad for his birthday. Everybody's expensive cell phone cameras had weird CCD banding, but not my lovely Kodak! Chez cruft sr.

I like taking pictures, but I'm really bad at transferring them from my camera to places people can see them. I still haven't transferred the ones I took from the UK and Japan last year. Also I feel weird about posting them but that's just some weird approval thing I should probably talk to a therapist about, but byob is like therapy, so I will share a few random shots I've taken over the years that I really like.

OMG YOU PHOTOGRAPHED A FULLY SEXUAL SNAIL

A+++ good photos keep 'em coming

The idea in this thread is to just share whatever photo you took that you want to post. Sometimes people take pictures of things because they find the thing interesting and/or they want to remember what it looked like: that's what I mean when I talk about "tourism photography".

Like I don't know if that door you photographed is a good photo, but it's an interesting lookin' door!

It's BYOB for photos. :justpost:

OK I figured it out, I had to open each url in my browser then select view desktop site and then it lets me generate the bbcode links. :pseudo:

That is basically 100% of my photos, even if I'm not tourisming! Although I guess you can be a tourist where you live by just going outside and touring about and taking pictures of stuff!

Maybe I'm remembering it from another photo you took! That would explain why don't know where I've seen it.

My sister-in-law convinced me to get the fancypants camera. It's pretty nice, but it seems like I've mostly been photographing my wife and dog so far.

Here's something I took while goofing around with the macro function:
