[QUOTE="Moab Man, post: 211807, member: 11881"] I got the, "you must have a really nice camera" compliment last week. I started to laugh and said to the ladies, "did you want to insult me more before I head off to my class?" This was all said in a way so that they knew I was playing with them and not hurt, but they had no idea what they had said. So I told them that while my camera is really is really nice, I'm sure I had nothing to do with taking the great pictures they were raving about. They were quickly doing some playful backpedaling. I explained to them that if you want to insult a photographer tell them that they must have a really great camera and explained why this was an insult. They had never really thought about it prior to me explaining it. Disclaimer: All of this is true unless you're Dave_W. He has a really nice camera and I can tell by looking at his pictures. :) I figure most things are rooted in some shred of truth and Dave_W must be that shred of truth in this one. [/QUOTE]
