A few weeks ago, I made my way up to the Met for some casual touring. Never having been there before, I made sure my camera was fully charged and free of any surplus pictures that might take up any extra camera space. Every picture is precious when going to a museum. Starting at the large stone stair case, leading to the entrance, I started snapping my camera away at everything and anything. The real adventure however, started when I made my way into the Greek and Roman exhibit. Needless to say, I went picture happy and by the time I had ventured to every corner of the museum, I had not room for one more photo.

My style of touring has been and will probably always be, take as many pictures as possible so I can relive the experience again when I review my gallery. I never gave much thought to my weird habits and those of others until some hair-brained woman started talking to me about one particular painting. It wasn't a long conversation for we were both in a hurry to move on, or perhaps, to get away from each other.

"Wanna know how to see if a museum is any good or not?"

"Er, sure?"

"Go around and take as many pictures of dogs as you can find and then when you go home you can see if you had a good day or not."

"Uhuh"


I think it is safe to say that I will be sticking to my own methods from now on.
