Would you rather take pictures or be in pictures?

I love taking pictures but I don't think I'm any good at it. I believe some people are just born with the gift of taking really breath-taking pictures. sadly, I'm not one of them. But I don't let it deter me because every chance I get, with my camera in hand, I try to snap as many pictures as I can. On the other hand, I also love being in pictures. Photographs are like special tokens for me of a special memory. I would love to sit and watch at the different photographs i took or with me in it and it somehow transports me to the time the picture was actually taken. And besides, i love being wacky, making funny poses and faces. How about you? Would you prefer being the one snapping the picture or would you rather be the star?

I am very very handsome when i young.hoho,So i like to making funny poses and be in picture.Now i am older and like to take a camera to snap exicited scene. I found its more interesting. After back home, i will edit photos and write someing, then post in bbs for share. I spend little money on clothes but waste many money on camera because i need better quality. Taking photo is my habbit and interesting now and its really a great fun.

Oh I'd rather be the one taking the pictures. I'm not really photogenic. LOL You know what? If you really wanna learn the skill, you can go to photography workshops, I'm sure you can learn a lot from the pros.

I prefer being the photographer. I find it funny to smile & pose for the camera. a little uneasy on my side.
