I really get annoyed when asked to take photos all the time.I think the purpose of travelling is to relax yourself and enjoy the scenery.But a friend of mine kept asking to take photos for her as she thinks taking photos is the most important thing when we travel.I just dont agree with her.Its not bad to take a few photos for us to recall the trip later,but focusing on taking photos only distracts us from enjoying what we see with our own eyes.And there's no point showing off your photos.Do you like to take photos when traveling?

I do not travel much but when i travel, i do take my camera with me to take photos and whenever i cross by a beaiutiful scene worth taking photo then i quickly click and keep the scenery with me always. But most of the time i say someone to stand near the scene so both two in one works for me.

I do travel and I like taking pictures of the scenery a lot, but not of myself. and when i do, well i carry a camera stand so i won't annoy someone to take picture of me. anyway, most of the times that i travel is with someone or friends who like to take picture of me and that's where i got annoyed. I only like to take pictures along with beautiful scenery but not everywhere.^^;


myLot reputation of 95/100. sweetyethot (1041)   ranked 225 out of 3,127 in photography  3 months ago

Same with me.I dont like to annoy others or be annoyed.Most of the time,I like to enjoy the scenery with my own eyes.BTW,I like your avatar,it looks beautiful.Is it a picture of you?

I really love traveling and taking photos is a way for me to enjoy remembering past trips. I have a book shelf with all my travel photos in white photo albums. They are special to me and I value them. I like to look at the scenery and watch the wildlife. The only time it gets annoying is when I take photos of a sea creature. Just before I click the creature goes underwater. I am glad I have a digital camera because in the days of film I got about two decent photos out of thirty six photos. Clicking so much did take away some of the enjoyment of watching the manatees.

i think its a necessity to bring camera while travelling. it captures the happy moments you have from your vacation. i guess youll appreciate these photo few years after the travel, it will make you bring back the memories and the fun and the experiences you had on your tour.

I love to take pictures provided I have a cam or my mobile. Usually I wont have a cam & my mobile won't have enough battery charge so many attimes I won't be able to take pics, so I prefer to store everything in my memorythumbup

I think photos are the best way to preserve memories. What traveler would not want to remember a wonderful vacation? Looking back at photos you've taken lets you go back at least one more time to a happy experience.

i'm not very keen on taking photos when travelling, but for memory, i'll still take some. i think if you really get annoyed for your friend, next travelling you can don't go with her, because happiness the most important thing, right?

I am not always take photos when travelling, most of time i dont take camera while travelling, the important thing is you enjoyed with the landscope, you are happy with your friends, that's ok, that's enough. sometimes, if this is the final time with your friend or sweet heart, you should make photos for memory.
some person make photos for showing off, i hate this thing
When audients see outside large activities I hating anyone make photos, especially photoflash lamps
