Today is World Photography Day. In my world, every day is Photography Day. I love taking photos.

What about you?

  • where and when was your last photo taken?
  • do you take selfies?
  • what type of camera do you use?
  • any photography projects in the works? coming up? would be interested in?
 
  • where and when was your last photo taken? I took photos last week when on a two day birding trip with a friend. I took landscape and wildlife photos. I got some good shots of a hawk being chased away by a few blackbirds.
  • do you take selfies? yes, I use them in my scrapping but if I didn't scrap I don't think I would.
  • what type of camera do you use? I use my iphone a lot b/c its with me and so convenient but I also have a mirrorless sony for wildlife photography, a sony RX10 IV bridge camera for travel and a nikon p950 for when I need a super zoom.
  • any photography projects in the works? coming up? would be interested in? I want to work on landscape photography this fall.
 
where and when was your last photo taken?
that will be a few days ago when I took a photo of a card I made for my records.

do you take selfies?
nope.

what type of camera do you use?
I have a hybrid digital camera (a Nikon)

any photography projects in the works? coming up? would be interested in?
non planned.
 
  • where and when was your last photo taken? Last week ... a photo of a package that came for my grandson. He and his siblings have their packages delivered to my house.
  • do you take selfies? Occasionally, and usually only with one or the other of my grandkids.
  • what type of camera do you use? Mostly my phone. About 14 months ago I bought a compact Canon P&S ... tried using it at Disneyland this spring and hated it ... buttons to close together, screen too small ... it was easier to use my phone, so I did. :) I have an old Canon dRebel (4?) that I haven't used in ages b/c of it's size/weight and lack of a Bluetooth/WiFi connection. I'm thinking about going to a camera shop and trying out one of Canon's mirrorless cameras.
  • any photography projects in the works? coming up? would be interested in? Our county offers all sorts of classes. In September there's a cell phone photography class I'd love to take, but (of course) I have a prior commitment for that day.
 
I snapped my last photo 3 hours ago in my driveway. I was photographing a piece of junk mail addressed to my kid who lives across the country from me to show how their name was printed on it in a funny way.

I take a lot of selfies.

My camera is my iPhone 14pro.

Until I went back to work a couple weeks ago, my photography project was Click's Project 52. I might get back into it when I get settled in my new work routine.
 
Where and when was your last photo taken? In my house a couple days ago with my Canon SX740 camera

Do you take selfies? No

What type of camera do you use? I have 3 cameras: Canon SX740 (in the purse camera), Canon Rebel T5, Canon SX540.

Any photography projects in the works? Coming up? Would be interested in?
Photos I took the other day were for an ongoing challenge at my PSP forum. We are doing an ABC album of "things around the house". My focus is taking photos of things that have been in the house for as long as I can remember. Some things are sentimental, some things belong to my mother, some things I brought into the house to make it my own.

I leave on a 13 day vacation on Friday so there will be a lot of photo taking in my immediate future. On my vacation in June, I took the SX740 camera which I used for most photos. But I did use my Samsung Flip6 phone for a few and found it easier for me to take photos with than my previous Samsung S10 phone. I was still afraid I would drop it so I have purchased a new case with a ring on the back to use for this vacation. I will take the Canon SX740 but plan to use the Flip6 for my photos. (So, yeah lots of photos to scrap when I get home, have 3 more days of last vacation to finish though).
 
  • where and when was your last photo taken? Two hours ago at my daughter’s volleyball game
  • do you take selfies? Sometimes
  • what type of camera do you use? iPhone
  • any photography projects in the works? coming up? would be interested in? Nope I just photograph the everyday life of our family. I enjoy the photography scrap challenges that encourage me to take different photos.
 
I haven't actively worked on improving my photography in a long time. Current all my photos are taken with my iPhone which thankfully does a great job and is always with me. Lol.

The last photo I took was yesterday or a very used kitchen table at the thrift store as a possibility for my son's apartment. :giggle
 
Where and when was your last photo taken? a photo of my son in the backseat with his Sonic drink yesterday (taken on my cell phone)

Do you take selfies? sometimes. I'm not in photos often if I don't.

What type of camera do you use?
my phone (a Samsung Galaxy S25; I only update every 6 or 7 years so I have to get something that will last), my DSLR (Canon 5D Mark IV, which I spent so long dreaming about that my dream camera was actually the Mark II), my favorite film SLR (Minolta SRT-102, which was my grandfather's and I learned to shoot on), and a hot pink Diana (medium format film camera, really just a toy with aspirations)

Any photography projects in the works? I think once I finish my current roll in my SLR, I'll have enough to send off for developing with the gift card I got for the holidays. I'm also hoping the weather holds for our anniversary so we can do a sunset boat tour past the Jupiter lighthouse. (It was raining last year when we did the Palm Beach/Peanut Island sunset boat so I didn't bring my camera and only had sad cell phone shots.)
 
This has been such an interesting thread, I really enjoy reading about your cameras and what you take photos of.
 
  • where and when was your last photo taken?
    The last photo I took was yesterday in the Walmart parking lot waiting on them to put tires on my car hahaha

  • do you take selfies?
    I haven't for a while. I used to take them more often.

  • what type of camera do you use?
    I mostly use my phone anymore, but sometimes I break out the big camera. It's a Nikon D7100.

  • any photography projects in the works? coming up? would be interested in?
    Nothing planned, but you never know :)
 
  • where and when was your last photo taken? I took a photo of a gift I sent my son for his birthday because it's a University of Oregon football autographed by their head coach, Dan Lanning, that I bought at an charity auction
  • do you take selfies? Yep...the last one was on the 14th
  • what type of camera do you use? Just my Samsung phone
  • any photography projects in the works? coming up? would be interested in? I really need to get involved in a photography challenge so I remember to TAKE THE PHOTOS! I literally only took one this week. Sigh.
