I post with both eyes open. However, I shoot with one eye closed.  |

It is not a very scientific poll because you did not include the options of : # 1 Right eye closed # 2 Both eyes closed   Seriously, if I closed my left eye I couldn't shoot because thats the one that works. --------------------------- Don Barnes The Photographers, www.thephotographers.cc The Ark was built by amateurs, The Titanic by professionals. 88mm gray filter plus whatever camera needed to activate it. |

Mostly with left eye closed. Sometimes with both open. Rarely with both eyes closed. ;D Rare, very rare, that I actually... well in some sort of strange way... root for the aggies.

It really depends on what I am shooting.... Sports I tend to shoot with both eyes open. But then, it depends on the sport. In certain situations during weddings it changes as well. Portraits my left eye is almost always closed... |

to explain this a little more.. i always shot with one eye closed, until i started shooting sports, and i realized how incredibly helpful it is to shoot sports with both eyes open.. now i have to shoot with both eyes open all the time.. if i try to close my left eye, i get a headache.. someone was making fun of me the other day for shooting with both eyes open, so it made me start wondering if i was the only one. glad to know i'm not :) --------------------------- |

I shoot left-eyed unfortunately... (i.e., Right Eye closed)... Didn't answer poll. :( There are some occasions where I might shoot with both open. |
