Confession: I am a Zoom-aholic
I love photography, hopefully you’ve seen that as a theme throughout my blog. Great photos and memories are the only souvenirs I care about, so I tend to take a LOT of photos (hence my backup of 25,000 on Flickr). Sometimes I come back from trips with some of the most random zoomed-in photos. I have to stop and ask myself – what was my end game with that picture?
Judge for yourself – here are some of my zoomed-in photos:
What random photos do you end up taking on your trips?
Gaurav Bhan Bhatnagar says
Wow Caroline. I like the first one in particular. I have clicked budhha so many times but never seen him from that angle. I love it.
Caroline Eaton says
Thank you! Budhha is a beast to photograph – I apparently felt like zooming in on the lips this day 🙂
Gaurav Bhan Bhatnagar says
And yes, all the best to you for TBEX 🙂
Caroline Eaton says
Will you be at TBEX also?
Lindsey says
Haha I do the same thing. I love super zoomed shots of animals in particular – I think it shows so much more emotion!
Caroline Eaton says
Yes! And I love getting in close on the details like the eyes and fur etc.!
Cindy says
Love it! I may have to reconsider how I use my zoom.
Caroline Eaton says
careful – it’s addicting :)!

I have to know…is the brick wall at Machu Picchu? It looks a lot like one I took while there. Sometimes you can tell a “story” with a close-up…I love them.
Caroline Eaton says
Yes! I love that you could tell guess the exact wall from that photo 🙂
Pamela says
Too funny! It just proves that every photo is worth a thousand words.

Caroline those are amazing! My ‘nice’ camera doesn’t have a fantastic zoom lens…you’ve inspired me to put that at the top of my wish list.

I looove your zoom photos. They look much more interesting I think. I always zoom in too. And I am obsessed with taking photos of food. Don’t know why!
