I sometimes wonder what our decendents in a couple hundred years will think when they look back on photos of our newest generation. They stand with their head tilted slightly to the side and their hand on their hip. It's kinda like the "Little Teapot" song without the spout. It makes you wonder if three friends have their pic made together if the middle person is secretly bummed out because she knows she will look older, plumper, dumber, or shorter.
It's also funny that it never crosses a guy's mind to pose to look better. He either has a fish hanging from his hands, or he's hanging out of a vehicle covered with mud, or he's on the beach sunburned with oily hair, or he's holding a canned drink raised to the sky, or he's standing straight up tall beside the girl posing with her hand on her hip.
I guess it's a girl thang.
Ha! I hope my recent photos were not what spawned this post. lol. Having pictures taken of us this weekend (versus being the one taking the pictures) I realized I don't know what to do with the arm that is not around Jesse, and I've noticed it looks awkward if I just leave it straight. It was discussed that I have a "possessive hand" that lingers towards Jesse's stomach for posing. And you're right, he just stands there and smiles for the camera - but he looks good doing it, so I'm not complaining. :)
