Vacationing through a viewfinder
I think there’s a whale in that photo somewhere. That black dot. That’s it. Frankly, that photo doesn’t capture the moment well at all. Pretty much none of my photos from a recent vacation do.
It’s why sitting through someone’s vacation slides has become shorthand for “bored out of your mind” no matter what Don Draper says.
I was showing my pics to an – admittedly game – friend the other day on my phone. “Well, this doesn’t really do it justice,” I kept saying as I flipped between them. “Sorry.”
