Pictures!

* * * WARNING * * * RANT * * * WARNING * * * RANT * * * WARNING * * *

I take a lot of pictures. Not as many as a some but definetly more than others. I used to take pictures of my friends and people around me until I started hearing 'I don't want to be in pictures' 'I like to be in pictures but not on Facebook' 'I want to be in Facebook pictures and but don't tag me in these ones' 'I love to be in pictures and I am going to be in all of your pictures'  Usually when I take pictures of the later kind of person the person of some other kind comes in to the same picture. What am I supposed to do then? I was planning on making a list of my friends and noting their desire or nondesire to be photographed and then check the list before taking the picture. By the time I've done this the moment has passed and everybody has moved on and FOR FUCKS SAKE! 

So I decided not to put pictures of people on Facebook. This decision did not help because in the addition of writing the list I had to explain and ensure that these pictures will not be published anywhere in the Internet. After I had got my point across the moment had passed (again) and taking pictures became really awkward.

So now I have a new rule: no taking pictures of any people unless they are 100 % Facebook-tag approved. Even then I rarely put them on Facebook. Just to be safe.

Due to my latest breakdown I went for a long walk and took a few pictures this weekend. It is nice when something bad makes you do something good. By the way listen to a song called 'Something Good Can Work' by Two Door Cinema Club. I'll put the link in the end.

P.S I respect peoples privacy and that is the reason why I stopped taking pictures of humans. It is understandable when one does not want one's pictures to be published in the Internet especially since we have witnessed many of unflattering pictures being posted all around it. I bet we are all a bit traumatized by bad judgement. I just find it annoying when I feel like I have to restrain my favourite hobby.
