I'm kind of ruthlessly single-minded, as well as being an inveterate introvert, so having a camera when people are around means that either pictures won't get taken, or people won't get talked to. And with scenery the situation is about the same (and not conversing with a good bit of landscape is a serious sin). But when I look at cool pictures like Gaffentine's, it makes me wish that the situation were otherwise. (Ahem, let's just assume that the only thing holding me back from producing great art is not happening to have a camera with me.)
Of course there's also something about the scenery out west. Hot cross buns do I ever miss mountains.
