I think some tourists, look at scenic places through their camera than with their eyes. They move fast to a place, quickly observe the surroundings, click, click and gone. I dont see them really enjoy the surroundings and capture it with their naked eye. They are more curious about the lens eye. Having spent money and time, isnt it important that you enjoy the place first, before taking a snap? I love taking photos, only after I have enjoyed the surroundings 
Follow me
This is exactly , I feel when friends try to keep on clicking the scenarios than actually enjoying it..
Looks like it’s not just me. USla idhu rombave jaasthi. Innum funny ennana they will buy a camera, take a lot of photos and return it…. Ennanu solla.
apuram, those trademark patel shots!! azhagaana scenary munnaadi poi ninnu, pose kodukaradhu… use it as proof? memoir? or for bride seeing!!

Aalukku oru aasai… hahahahhahahaaha…
Hehehe ive seen that – n no im not one of them – i stare enjoy then take a lot ;p
You go to a place and have a nice time when you look through your eyes..
But what you’ve seen through the lens eye helps you relive the pleasant memories long after you’ve visited the place..
We call them as wedding snaps for bachelor guys while they opt to a solo snaps.
I hope you are not talking about Japanese tourists out there.. they finish the Europe trip in 10 days.. they just click photos of every spot & then pack & leave.. later @ home they check out all the fotos…
this i got to know from Germans & Russians..
(no offence intended to any Japanese)
How do you they are not coming secons time or third time. Many photographers scout the location well in advance before shooting. (i am talking of nature photographers)
hey kris, even if you travel from japan (or any other country) with limited resources (time, money, vacation days etc) and have a wish to travel all over europe in 10 days, won’t you do the same ?
tell me guys, how many of you spent more than 1 or 2 days if you have to visit a city on the other corner of the country ?
hmmm…have noticed tis quite a few times…some are busy adjusting their state of art cameras…and when they’re done, they’re busy posing
I guess it’s just collecting enough evidence for the I-too-have-been-here bragging
so true.. last week I had been on a trip to Dandeli with a couple of photography enthusiasts… while I was ooh-ing and aah-ing at the lovely forests, the fresh dew, and the pure air, these guys were complaining that it was all the “same green color” everywhere and it would look so normal in the photograph… totally burst my balloon!!
