YMBAP....if the test drive of a new car includes a test-fitting of the camera (with various lenses, of course) in the center console....and how well the cupholders fit the other lenses.

YMBAP...

if you turn off the sound when watching movies so that the story doesn't distract you from appreciating the lighting.

if you have more bags than your wife, but they are all back

if your kids run for cover when they see you pull out one of the black bags

if you have a back-up camera as if you really needed a back-up camera

if you spend more time reading forums like this one than earning a living

Glad I'm not the only one. I can almost fit an emergency 70-200 in my glovebox.

YMBAP if every time you look at something you crop the scene into a pleasing composition. Right about now I want to rearrange my living room using the rule of thirds.

YMBAP if your husband, who has no interest in photography, looks at one of your pics and tells you that a photo does not have catch lights.......and he knows what a catch light is LOL!

... if your wife sits alone at all the kid's events.

... if you've ever directed a stranger's snapshot.

when you avoid interstate highways. (see avatar)

texkam added 6 Minutes and 6 Seconds later...Double Post Merged Below

when your child's school wants a baby picture for the senior video and it takes you a week to decide which one.
