Photo help

Hi all. I realised not long ago that I have no photos of myself in the places I visited in the last 2 years and would like to change that. Anyone here have any good 'Shop skills or wish to be hired by me next time I am in Montreal or elsewhere outside the US? I go places alone which can explain why I have no photos of myself there but feel I made a mistake not asking around to see if anyone would like to snap me in a few nice locations...

Thanks

Lol, random.

Well, if you're ever in Brisbane, lemme know and I'll take some pictures of you, or something

Perhaps I should've made the subject line clearer?

Oh, did I misunderstand? It kinda sounded like you wanted someone to go random places with you and take pics of you

So, you want to photoshop your image into pics you've already taken? I'm not sure if that's weirder or not

For future travels, I suggest getting yourself a cheap, light and portable tripod for your camera, so you can set up a shot then go to stand in it.

Either/or.

I would be willing to pay someone to do the shots though.

Does the tripod fit all cameras? Should I wait till I get a new camera before buying the tripod?

you can buy a tripod at any time, they are not expensive and i think they fit all cameras. but ask a guy at the shop just in case..

millions of people on myspacebook don't have that problem, you should study those sites for clues.

You can easily ask people around you. Not that hard.

Does your camera have a small hole in the bottom, with a screw-thread inside it? If so, your camera will fit onto a tripod screw, since they're a standardised size.

Use Miksang and photograph the idea of you being in the place, rather you actually being in the place.

Personally, I like the idea of photoshopping yourself into pictures. Get a bunch of drunken photos and photoshop those into the pictures.
