I presume someone couldn't handle the concept of "Perspective"?

I'm amazed he didn't attach 'stick-on' boobs or, at the very least, plastic cleavage...

Sherri,

You mentioned this photographic peculiarity before. And it got me to thinking why a man would accidentally cut off the heads of certain female subjects.

I have thought of a few theories.

A good photographer always wants to frame the subject matter of most interest in a quadrant off centre, and if the guy has the zoom in too far to capture the objects of interest in greatest detail, he's bound to cut off less important areas. A sure indication he's an amateur photog or he's got a fetish with large objects.

Second, was the subject a blonde? In which case why would anyone want to take a picture of empty, dead space? Just chop it off and forget it...a sign of a good photog... or he works/worked for Hustler mag.

<<edited to correct "breatest" to "greatest"...must've been concentrating too much on the subject matter of interest, doooh!>>

I am sorry ladies.....That was a photo of Miss. Newfoundland, 2004.
You cant get much more wholesome than these two.

I have metioned the missing head thing before 'cause I have seen it happen.  Chris and I were at a lovely wedding last summer and I asked him to get a picture of the bride and groom together.  A) he was closer & B) figured he could handle it (was I wrong).  The picture turned out very nice, all that was there though was chests.  I wouldn't have a problem with this if this hadn't been his sister.  My thinking is you can look, but please, please refrain from snapping pictures of your sisters chest area and all that it holds dear.

PS - it's a great joke picture now and he hasn't touched the camera since.

Sherri,
I wouldnt worry about Chris's facination with his sisters chest.....
It is quite a common thing down here in the states.
(One state in particular.)

(Chris.....yer scarin' me buddy! )       

hmm...

the woman i took the picture of is NOT my sister...

sherri and i have already had this discussion but she does like to razz me about it when she can.

and i will always look at the menu...

just have to be extra carefull what to order.

so Paula honey...what are you doing for the weekend anyway.

i have this neet camera and i could use some help with my focus

Ahem....  You'll notice...the name PAULA does NOT appear on the menu!

                      

And you may want to be a little careful in your choice of reading material.....I have heard that a lot of close up menu perusal can be hazardous to your health.....causing a condition called "I've got a headache" and/or the frying pan treatment...which is usually preceded by the question of "one lump or two?".... 

(Hey Sherri....you need any cast iron frying pans?  I've got a nice heavy one whose handle fits in the palm of my hand just like a baseball bat....)

appetizer is on the menu...
