Many of you have probably noticed that there is about a thousand photos of me for every photo of Spiros on this website. Let me explain. Spiros takes beautiful photos, I on the other hand, do not. In fact, I am completely inept. Ok, I have managed to fluke off the occasional nice photo, but only after considerable patience and coaching on his part.

Here is a series to demonstrate my point. I wanted to get a shot of him cycling next to one of the elephants in Angkor. Here are the miserable results:

Didn’t wait long enough for him to catch up to the elephant.

Bad Photo

Cut off the elephant.

Bad Photo

Motorist got in the way.

Bad Photo

Not sure what happened here.

Really Bad Photo

Just plain bad.

So you see, it is not that we don’t have photos of him, it’s simply that 98% of the photos I have taken…well…suck. :-(

    Hey, who took the picture of Spiros in the doorway? That’s awesome. And it’s not the only one. Besides, how to take a proper picture of a moving target past a moving object/animal while on the bike and with other moving objects (motorcycles) passing by?

    Nice try Diana but the elephant was moving at a staggering 1km per hour. :-D. Thanks though!
