While we were away it was interesting to see all the tourists trying to take selfies…
Often I’d stop and offer to take a photo of the ‘whole’ group or couple together.
One group of guys was very happy for our offer and even asked to take photos with a second phone of their group. I think it is nice when tourists do help each other 🙂
I once offered help in taking a photograph too and was determinedly refused. Of a group and I could see the guy had trouble getting everyone in. Then the other day at the waterfall, two tourists arrived and first thing they did was take the phone for the selfie. I wanted to take a photo of them taking a photo of themselves but they saw and gave it up. 🙂
A few folks do say “No thanks”, but most are happy to have someone else take a go. It might be easier with those selfie sticks… but that’s just another gadget to carry around. 🙂
People and their toys! Bores me.
Ugh. I’m guilty…
Hi Nan! So am I from time to time but I don’t post it on social media. I’m in fact thinking of printing it out and use it as a background to paint on – alleviating the self-consciousness if you like! 🙂
I agree 100%. Blind to the world. So sad. Seasons Greetings to you. Have a great 2019. Liz
Hi Liz! Nice to have you visit here again. Blessings to you too please!
