Default Favorite Photography Lines

So I havent been around much lately on DPS but that should change soon.

Anyways, I was shooting a few days ago and heard a line that always makes me laugh... "Wow your camera takes really good pictures."

This wasn't the first time I have heard this and definitely won't be the last, but it always brings a smile to my face.

Do you have any other good lines?

Client asks photographer, "Can you make me look 20 lbs thinner and 10 years younger?"

Photographer answers: "I'm a photographer, not a plastic surgeon."

OMG I cannot count all the times I have heard that line. Even though I've only had it for about a month. Kinda just ignore by now.

A good one: "Hey I'd like to return this camera. It's defective. It keeps cutting off peoples heads!"

I've heard this many times. Even more amusing to me, I once heard "Wow, your lens takes really good pictures!" I didn't realize I had such talented glass on my camera. That comment is annoying enough, but it turned out that the main reason this person was so impressed with my lens was because it was so much bigger than hers. I was shooting with my 55-250mm f4-5.6 (I love it but it's nothing fancy, just a cheap lens) and she was shooting with an 18-55mm kit lens. I guess size does matter.

It is okay to edit and post my images on DPS only.

lol.....good one!
As for the ear-muffs, it looks like he's on an airstrip, so I guess we gotta give him that one.....But i just looked at it again it doesn't look like they are actually on his ears to me!
