Vacation Photos

I share my pics on Instagram speedo or not

Some friends of mine headed off to vacation as soon as the school year ended. She's a teacher. She's an Instagram addict and has been posting lots of pictures of the beach paradise they're visiting.

We've hung out for years and I've never seen her husband in anything other than shorts when we go swimming. But he's wearing a speedo in every photo she's taking on their trip.

Even better, the comments are all super positive.

This morning she posted a photo subtitled "Breakfast in paradise!" It was a selfie of her eating breakfast on the deck. Her husband was standing in the background drinking coffee completely nude. It got pulled down by the censor algorithm pretty quickly.

I figured it was a mistake, but later today she sent a few close friends an email with the subject line "Guess we're too hot for Instagram!" I opened it up. All it says was, "Guess we're having too much fun for Instagram." There was no message, just a photo of them both nude on the beach.

In the old days 35mm film came in 24 and 36 shot lengths, the photographer made every shot count trying not to waste expensive film. Viewers would enjoy seeing 24 photographs and show interest in seeing 36 shots but after that they would lose concentration.
With a digital camera you can take a couple of hundred shots on your holiday and must edit them down to the 24 or so that make an interesting montage.
You wish to show 24 pictures to friends and family, first get rid of the pictures that are not good enough, then knowing your audience select the pictures that they would like to see. If some of your friends and family are likely to be shocked or mocking seeing you in speedos edit out the speedo pics of their photo selection, your speedo friends won't want to see you in restaurants and discos, unless you disco in speedos.
You should end up with 2 or 3 photo selections for different audiences and possibly a photo file marked not for publication. There will also be pictures too good to delete but good enough to show anyone.

Never had a problem with family or anyone else seeing the holiday snaps of me in speedos!
