What's your bad habit?

7 years 7 months ago #495265 by Moossmann
I don't throw away any of my packaging when I buy new gear.  Nothing.  So I have a big pile of boxes in my garage.


I also have all my photography gear scattered all over my home.  LOL I better do something about that.  I might learn that I have more than I thought I did.

I don't think keeping boxes is necessarily a bad thing (I do it too!). Embarrassingly, I leave the lens cap on far too often, usually when there's a crowd around.

I check each of my shots after I take them.  Some would say that isn't a bad habit, I guess in digital age, it might be?

Being too blunt I suppose. Well that is what I have been told. I am not a diplomacy type of person.

Add me to the list of people that forget to check all the camera settings beforehand. Sheesh. You'd think I'd learn by now but apparently not!

Probably my biggest failing is taking off into the back country, and letting NOBODY know where I'm going. (Note to self: very little cell area in the White Mountains)...My family thinks I'll just disappear some day. 

Why so serious?

I'm constantly losing my lens caps!  I don't know if that qualifies as a bad habit, however I feel it should.

I somehow always engage the rapid shooting function on my phone so I take dozens of shots when I only want to take one!
