Today I kissed my camera :)

Yes, really!

After a happy hour taking and downloading photos I was in such a good mood that I kissed my camera - hehe!

Anyone else find that photography affects their mood, for better or otherwise?

It certainly does! I am so relaxed after a little time with my camera.

Yep, I am a photo junkie I have to have my FIX everyday.

I find photography is a bit like life. A few success stories and lot you would rather forget. But a good shot is always a magic moment.

When there is a nice to catch and your camera is not there.....what happens......bad luck .......so I keep love one with me always....but he is not my partner ....so question of kissing does not arise......he is my friend....

It's a totally awesome feeling when you've been out for a trip & taken some great photos especially when you get home, check them out on the computer & they look even better than you'd hoped :)

i agree, my camera can put me in a great mood and i find that taking photos is a great way to relax and relieve stress.

Last week I woke up in a sleazy motel room with a Nikon at my side. My Canon hasn't spoken to me since.

I cannot describe in words how photography has changed my life. I had a very large hole in my life to fill, either in a positive space, or fall down the big black hole. I never have a bad day with my camera, just a different day. It is not what the camera does, but what you take from it. If I would kiss my camera, those around me would think nothing of what happens in carol world....

Ha ha ha, I always feel like I should hide the matches better?

My camera gives me an excuse to go out walking and seeing the world. I notice things that I used to walk by and not really see. It's because you are always looking for a great pic that you see what you thought was mundane and make it into something really interesting. It's great way to relax and appreciate the world around you

ha ha ha, a while ago I took a picture of me kissing my camera, but I didn't post it. It totally affects my mood! I've been in kind of a bad place since dropping my nicer camera and having to go back to the older one that has it's own issues. But I am SO grateful that it at least can take a few pics!

Taking photos I can be proud of has helped me see myself in a much more positive light - I love the positive feedback form my 365 friends but have found that I am happy to post pictures which are special to me but hold no appeal to others and not feeling I have to please others is a big step forward for me!
