Re: Sunglasses - do you take them off when taking shots?

I stopped 'posing' a long time ago

Seriously tho, haven't put sunglasses on for donkeys years.... I must be getting old

If I did wear them tho I would prob take them off as I wouldn't want to scratch the camera..

Re: Sunglasses - do you take them off when taking shots?

I only have a basic digital point and shoot camera and usually I use the back screen to aim rather than the proper eye hole bit so it does`nt make any difference if I have sunglasses on, though I do raise them to check natural colour / too much shadow when I remember
[ Three guesses why I don`t have lots of fab photo`s to post ]

My favourite sunset photo that I took was a sheer luck one as the angle of the first couple was lousy horizon wise so I held the camera overhead, pointed in roughly the right direction, and hoped - and got my favourite shot so I`m probably better sticking with the pot luck method anyway
