Default Evolution Of A Photographer

So I am looking through some websites I frequent, and I came across a rather humorous one that showcased the strange things we as photographers do in order to get the shot. One photo in particular showed the evolution of a photographer.



I think I'm at stage 3, as I don't have the uber cool fishing vest yet.

I found this here.

I often end up upside down, hanging over edges, hanging on to branches... I want to see THOSE steps! :P

That's hilarious!!!!!

Funny....technically, I'm still at stage 3, but I tend to get into the 4th and 5th positions mostly, since 90% of the photography I do is kids.

Good one

Does mud splatters off the bike count as camo?

It's mostly macro of wee beasties that I do so much of it is lying down or kneeling.

Sorry, hate to be stick in the mud, but that doesn't make it OK. In fact that shows EXACTLY what is wrong with the Orphaned Works Proposal that keeps getting shoved down our throats at least part way. Hopefully, it will never be successful.

Here's a hypothetical. The first website (not the real one we're talking about here) is lazy and sites a work as author unknown. Then, someone comes along and decides that since the author is unknown, they can do what they please with it. Bad news all the way around.
