    The area between the neck and the family jewels looks like it could have been a photo of your's truly as well. Since I share the same...er... build currently, I feel qualified to say that it could well be that the gut took too much of the lens' field of view to get the whole shot in...........Click, ducking for cover.

    I think we both belong to the clan MacDonalds (the "Golden Arches" one).

    Seriously,
    Very few who wield a camera know how to use it, and again that includes myself. Your "volunteer" brings home that point.

    I found some luck in asking the person to take a picture of "my kilt," instead of just "taking my picture."

    You're right about photos being the heart of this site and you do more than your share to keep it "pumping". Keep the great pics coming!

    Yes, beautiful scenic backdrop, Ron, but I also have had the problem of asking people to take my photo then they take a head and shoulders shot which shows nothing of the kilt. Perhaps its a sign that kilts are now taken for granted and are no longer a novelty in the eyes of the person taking our photos.
