10 more ways to tell if you’re a photographer
// May 20th, 2006
Expanding on the original post, here are 10 more ways to tell if you’re a photographer:
- One of your primary criteria when buying a new cell phone is how good the camera is.
- You love the smell of fixer in the morning.
- You’ve made more than 50 shots of a single subject.
- When you can’t find a model, you make self portraits.
- You’ve endured a little loneliness for the sake of a photograph.
- There’s a photo that inspires you to try and make one just as moving.
- Tourists ask you to take their picture.
- You were insufferable for the two weeks it took to get your camera back from repair.
- You seem to find great photo opportunities whenever you leave your camera at home.
- The garbage needs taking out, the house is a mess, and your car is filthy… but the glass on your favorite lens doesn’t have a speck of dust on it.

HAHA! I think all of these are true for me except for the first one. I really don’t like my mobile to be my camera. I have my compact for that.

I agree. I’ll never buy a camera phone, and I don’t know what fixer smells like.
