Just a fact of life I'm afraid Leon, one doesn't have to be a photographer, we all do it at some time or other.

Emotional intelligence..

If you pretend to know, people will challange you. If you become their friend, they will try to help...

Any help? Takes time to learn tho if it doesn't come natural...

I do that one all the time.......or take a whole day's worth of pictures without realizing you're still set on ISO 1600 from the night before.

Cursing my camera for overexposing everything before figuring out I left it on M :-)

I was ribbed mercilessly after trying to work out why my photos in the dark weren't working with flash... I'd left the lens cap on. Doh.

Leaving the lens cap on....
Or someone else that you dont know leaves it on...You dont want to be mean, act like a know it all, or to hurt someones feelings you kind of chuckle cause its cute (been there and you know all do it) you speakup to say "excuse me, your lense cap is on" :)

Go out one Saturday and take about 200 pictures. Some that I though would be great. Got home and I didn't have the CF-Card in the camera. 200 clicks, NO PICTURES!.....

EDIT: BTW I have since set the camera not to take pictures w/o the CF-Card.
