What do you take too many pictures of?
Documenting my obsessions
Hi Watchers!
Is there anything you can’t stop yourself from taking pictures of?
I’m old enough to remember a time when taking pictures had to be a deliberate act. First, you had to own a camera. Second, you needed to remember the camera. And third, you had a limited amount of film, so each click had to matter.
Now, we all carry cameras in our pockets. I love to take pictures. But if a future anthropologist were to examine the pictures I’ve taken with my phone, they would need a theory to explain why I take so many pictures of reflections. I have hundreds upon hundreds of reflection pictures—everything from rivers and lakes to puddles and pools.
How about you? What do you take too many pictures of? Reply to this email or leave a comment!

P.S. Thank you for all of your comments about winter! I love learning more about the places you live and seeing what makes us different and the same.
I’m with Skyler on this! I take a lot of pictures of the sky as well. We have a great view of the Catskill Mountains from my backyard, so we are blessed with many beautiful sunsets. In the summertime I also enjoy watching storms roll in from the west. I also take a lot of photos of forests. I love finding old, Ent-like trees with twisted limbs and unique features.
The sky. Sunrises on the way to take the small human to school. Sunsets when I’m out and about that time of day. Rainbows are an absolute favorite and in the summertime those massive supercell thunderstorms that come through.
