I was getting out of the house to go pick up the kids at day camp, then was going straight to the grocery store.
Nothing new there.
Except you guys (ofc I have to blame someone) got me so addicted to photography, that I couldn't leave the house without my camera.
Well, for me it's kinda easy cause it fits in my purse...
But even on my way to the store, I managed to find something to take pictures off... clouds in the stormy sky...

Last night was my son's soccer practice, and ofc then also I had to bring my camera and I took many pictures of a rainbow and the kids playing soccer on a muddy field...

I now feel that I can't leave my camera at home, for fear of missing any good shot...

So this poll is for fun ofc, trying to figure out your addiction to this wonderful hobby :love:

I am kind of in the middle of these two

- If I go somewhere I think there would be good opportunities
- Everywhere I go.

Sometimes I'll take it if I feel there is a good opportunity. And sometimes I'll just leave it at home because i feel there is no opportunity... but then an opportunity appears out of no where and I don't have my camera. Lately I've been taking it everywhere I go.

its good to take it everywhere you go...that way you will never miss an opportunity. on the other hand, its good sometimes to just appreciate something, and take a mental picture... A 'turner' painting for example, one of the most beautiful pieces of art, and he did that all without a camera, just from his memory :)

i take mine when i want...depends if im feeling it or not :D

Everywhere.
(Except some places. Like, everywhere that is possible, or ideal.)
So like, if I go for a drive, walk, bike, etc. I bring it.

If I go out to a fancy restaurant to eat, of course I don't.


I'm thinking of getting a 3rd camera LOL.
A small, "sleek" P&S that I can have in my pocket 24/7.

I usually take it whenever I'm gone for more then a day or I think I might get some good shots. So I picked other. I would take it everywhere I go but I'm too paranoid about something happening to it or don't feel like lugging it around for a few hours.

I had considered this too, but I'm broke and would rather get a new lens first.
