    Bloopers!!!

    That's right, we've all got 'em.....shots that just didn't come out as expected. Post them here and we'll all get a good laugh and maybe learn what not to do.

    The worst photo for me, as far as missing-the-moment is concerned, was taken at my sister's graduation...

    This photo, at the moment that it was taken (3 years ago), was probably the best idea i've ever had. Of course that 'IDEA' was influenced by lots of beer and little bit of the happy green stuff while i was in college. The stupid thing is, is that i purposely rearanged the tater's into the shape it was in and laughed myself silly after i took the photo. When i woke up and looked at it, i really realized what an idiot i was.

    It may not be considered a 'blooper' but for some reason i still have it on my computer after 10 harddrive reformats...for some reason, i never delete the pic when i reload my comp.

    I have millions of missed bird in flight shots:



    This is an especially good one. What happens when you walk from a cold air-conditioned room, into 100% humidity and heat and try to take a long exposure? doh!



    This one is the most annoying, it would have been the most perfect shot, if I had noticed the blade of glass in front of the lens.

    While taking a photo of the moon and using your car as a tripod, it might be a good idea to turn off the engine.....

    not sure rob, but the flash does look like it fired.
    notice there are 4 species of birds in that photo...
    -(see gull, duck, pigeon, and grackle)
