I was at a wedding last weekend where one of the guests asked me to take a photograph using their point and shoot. I generally don’t like to do this given that no matter how many times I do it I still have trouble figuring out how they work. It’s worth a laugh once in a while though, as it tends to stop me from taking myself too seriously. In most cases though I just tell the guest … “I can’t figure out how to work this thing, there aren’t enough buttons …”

On this particular sunny Saturday afternoon. Not sure what came over me, must have been something I ate, I picked up the point and shoot, arranged the group and put it up to my eye – only to realize that it doesn’t have a viewfinder but a huge LCD screen instead.
